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

The purpose of this study was to investigate the usage of an anatomical model to improve surgical planning of a complex schwannoma resection. As advancements in additive manufacturing continue to prosper, new applications of this valuable technology are being implemented in the medical field. One of the most recent applications has been in the development of patient-specific anatomical models for unique clinical education as well as for preoperative planning. In this case, a multidisciplinary team with expertise in research, three-dimensional printing, and medicine was formed to develop a three-dimensional printed model that could be used to help plan the reduction of a tumor from the cervical spine of a pediatric patient. Image segmentation and stereolithography creation were accomplished using Mimics and 3-matic, respectively. Models were developed on two different printer types to view different aspects of the region of interest. Reports from the operating surgeon indicated that the model was instrumental in the planning procedures of the operation and reducing operation time.
