The utilization of selective neck dissection in the treatment of recurrent branchial cleft anomalies.

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.
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
To investigate the characteristics of recurrent branchial cleft anomalies (BCAs) and to evaluate the surgical technique and outcomes of patients undergoing reoperation.From January 2005 to August 2018, the clinical data of 216 patients with recurrent second, third, and fourth BCAs were retrospectively analyzed. According to the embryological and anatomical features of the cleft palate and recurrence site, selective neck dissection techniques were used for surgical treatment.Among all 216 patients, 203 healed by primary healing. Twelve patients with local infections and 1 patient with a pharyngeal fistula healed after dressing changes. Eleven patients experienced transient hoarseness and recovered after a few months. Three patients developed permanent hoarseness, and 5 patients developed coughing after eating and drinking. Three patients underwent internal jugular vein ligation. Only 4 recurrences occurred during a follow-up period of more than 1 year. The total cure rate was 98.15%.Selective neck dissection is an effective and safe surgical treatment for recurrent second, third, and fourth branchial cleft anomalies.
