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

The "non-recurrent" course of the inferior laryngeal nerve (ILN) is an anatomical variant which must be borne in mind during thyroid surgery. The "non-recurrent" course of the ILN on the right side is associated with the aberrant right subclavian artery (arteria lusoria), and, on the left, is described in situs viscerum inversus. We present a case in which the "arteria lusoria" was not associated with the non-recurrent right ILN. The aims of this paper are to report this "anomaly of the anomaly" to surgeons who may be unaware of it on the one hand and on the other to emphasize that this is the only case so far reported in the literature. Moreover we proposed to explain embryologically these unexpected findings.
