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

backgroundThe teaching of endoscopic endonasal surgery has always been difficult because of the complex structure of the nasal cavity, and the unique endoscopic view angle and endoscopic surgical tools. In this study, we have designed a 3D printed multi-color model for training of endoscopic endonasal surgery, and obtained preliminary application results.

methodsThe 3D printed model contained facial skin, bony skeleton, internal carotid artery, turbinate, optic chiasm, and a special sellar base with appropriate colors. After it was printed, six otolaryngologists and neurosurgeons assessed the model. Twenty graduate students and residents from otolaryngology or neurosurgery, without prior experience in endoscopic endonasal surgery were recruited and consented for the training. The training results were recorded. The subjective feeling of participants in terms of using 3D printed model in surgical training was investigated after training.

resultsAll experts strongly agreed or agreed that the 3D printed model has realistic anatomical structure of nasal passage and appropriate colors for different parts, and is a good teaching tool. As the trainees practiced more, the rate and quality of endoscopic operation increased gradually. Compared to the first practice, all recorded training parameters were improved significantly (all

conclusionThis 3D printed model has realistic anatomical structure of nasal passage and appropriate colors for different parts, and could be a good teaching tool of endoscopic endonasal surgery.
