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

A 76-day-old Japanese Black calf presented with severe stridor, resenting palpation of the laryngeal region. Endoscopic examination revealed an expansile process restricting the esophageal and tracheal lumina caudal to the arytenoid cartilage, hyperemia and edema of the pharyngeal mucosa, right arytenoid cartilage swelling and displacement, and marked airway obstruction. The absence of an endotracheal wall abnormality impeded a definitive diagnosis. Computed tomography (CT) revealed a mass (CT value: 40-45 HU) caudal to the arytenoid cartilage, causing tracheal stenosis and esophageal displacement. The presence of gas in the mass suggested the presence of an abscess. Diagnosis of deep retropharyngeal lesions by conventional endoscopic and ultrasonographic examinations may be challenging; CT can then provide more comprehensive diagnostic information on a lesion.
