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

objectiveTo evaluate the association of 2-stage cleft palate (CP) surgery on velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI) incidence, speech surgeries, and cleft-related surgical burden.

designRetrospective cohort with follow-up of 4 to 19 years.

settingAcademic, tertiary children's hospital. PATIENTS: Patients who underwent CP surgery between 2000 and 2017. Exclusions included submucous CP or age at last contact under 3.9.

interventionsCleft palate surgery, completed in either a single-stage or 2-stage repair. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Rates of VPI diagnosis and speech surgery and total cleft surgeries;

resultsA total of 1047 patients were included; 59.6% had 2-stage CP repair, 40.4% had single-stage repair. Approximately 32% of children with 2-stage CP repair were diagnosed with VPI, as opposed to 22% of single-stage patients (

conclusionOur data show an increased risk of VPI diagnosis and increased surgical burden among patients receiving 2-stage CP repair.
