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

Arhinia (congenital absence of the nose) is a congenital rare disease, which has been reported in less than 60 cases in the literature. It consists of the absence of external nose, nasal cavities and olfactory apparatus and is generally associated with midline defects, microphthalmia, blepharophimosis and hypotelorism. Aesthetic problems as well as associated functional anomalies can potentially impact on the development and interpersonal relationships of the child at a later stage in life. Arhinia requires extensive management in early life in order to ensure airway patency and protection by means of tracheostomy, and to allow adequate pharyngeal and feeding function to the child. Aesthetic issues are managed with reconstructive surgery or an external prosthesis. There is no previous description in Literature of internal prosthetic devices used to sequentially shape soft tissues in complex reconstruction. We present an example of design and manufacturing of a bespoke nose implant produced by means of 3D printing and directly assessed on-table by means of 3D surface scanning.
