1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

This article describes the current significance of computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), cone beam CT, digital subtraction angiography (DSA), and special X‑rays in the diagnostics of temporal bone diseases. The latter is obsolete for diagnostic intentions. Possibilities and limitations in terms of detection and/or depiction of the extent of inflammatory, traumatic, tumorous, and postoperative pathologies are discussed. A concrete question and conveyance of clinical findings influence the choice of the method to be applied in the individual case. Malformations of the middle ear can only be detected noninvasively by CT or cone beam CT. These are also the methods that may support the diagnosis of otosclerosis in clinically unclear cases. MRI is the method of choice for pathologies of the inner ear and internal auditory canal, including inner ear malformations. At present, only in few institutions is a successful visualization of endolymphatic hydrops in Menière's disease realized.
