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

backgroundTonsillectomy is being performed either with a headlight, surgical loupe magnification or with microscopic aid. We report the technique of endoscope holder-assisted endoscopic tonsillectomy using coblation. Coblation tonsillectomy has the primary advantage of limited thermal damage compared with alternative forms of surgery.

methodsOur endoscope holder, primarily designed for endoscopic ear surgery, has been extrapolated for the use in two-handed technique of tonsillectomy. The method is described in detail.

conclusionEndoscope gives a panoramic view, better optics, magnified image of the bleeders and hence there is applicability of the endoscope holder for endoscopic tonsillectomy.
