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

objectives/hypothesisRecurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is a benign disease caused by human papillomavirus 6 and 11. The characteristic feature of this disease are wart-like lesions covering the respiratory epithelium with a predilection for the larynx. There is no curative treatment for the disease. The goal of the treatment is a total surgical removal of the papillomatous lesions in order to reduce the number of relapses. Therefore, a good visualization method of papillomas is crucial during surgery. The aim of the study was to compare the accuracy of narrow band imaging (NBI) to the use of white light alone in detecting RRP.

methodsThe study was carried out between April 2013 and November 2015 at Poznan University of Medical Sciences, Department of Otolaryngology, Poland. Rigid endoscopy with conventional white light (WL) and NBI (CV-260SL processor and CLV- 260SL light source, Olympus Optical Co. Ltd, Tokyo, Japan) was performed in all patients during direct laryngoscopy. All anatomical sites of the larynx and trachea were assessed using the Dikkers scale and Derkay total site scoring system with WL and NBI. The consensus was reached as to the number of lesions seen in WL compared to NBI.

resultsDuring 36 microlaryngoscopies, the number of papillomas detected in the larynx (by Derkay total site score) differed significantly between white light endoscopy and NBI (Wilcoxon test p = 0.000655). In endoscopy with NBI, a mean of 1.3 more papillomas in Derkay total site score was detected in comparison to white light endoscopy NBI showed additional areas of diseased tissue in 15/36 (41.67%) patients.

conclusionsNBI as an additional tool during microlaryngoscopy can improve the detection of papillomatous lesions.
