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

Grisel's syndrome is non traumatic atlanto axial subluxation usually associated with inflammatory conditions of head and neck region. Non traumatic atlanto axial joint subluxation is a rare entity for an unsuspecting otolaryngologist. The condition if missed and not treated properly can have serious implications with possible neurological deficit. We attempt to review the existing literature on the disease condition and also to highlight the proper management of the condition. Retrospective analysis of hospital record of last five years and an internet based literature survey on the current concepts and management of the condition. We have come across five cases of Grisel's syndrome over the last five years. The clinicopathological and radiological features are described. Grisel syndrome may remain undiagnosed at initial presentation if not suspected. Delayed diagnosis may result in life long morbidity for the patient and the need for surgical intervention. Many of the early cases can be treated successfully by conservative approach.
