Effects of Adenoidectomy and Adenotonsillectomy on Tympanostomy Tube Reinsertion Based on Korean Population-Based National Sample Cohort Data.
Article in The journal of international advanced otology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
objectivesWe evaluated the effects of adenoidectomy and adenotonsillectomy (AT) on tympanostomy tube (TT) reinsertion using population-based retrospective cohort data to confirm the association of adenoidectomy or AT with TT reinsertion reported in several previous studies. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis study used data from the National Health Insurance Service National Sample Cohort in Korea. We selected patients who underwent TT insertion between the ages of 0 and 9 years from 2006 to 2015. Patients were divided into the following groups: group 1, TT insertion only; group 2, TT insertion with adenoidectomy; and group 3, TT insertion with AT. The number of TT reinsertions was analyzed.
resultsThere were 745 patients in group 1, 115 in group 2, and 251 in group 3. There were 1,019 cases of total TT insertion and 336 of reinsertion in group 1, 169 of total TT insertion and 31 of reinsertion in group 2, and 343 of total TT insertion and 50 of reinsertion in group 3. The rates of TT reinsertion were significantly lower in groups 2 and 3 than in group 1. The risks of TT reinsertion in groups 2 and 3 were significantly lower than the risk in group 1 in both univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis.
conclusionTT reinsertion was significantly lower in the TT insertion with adenoidectomy and TT insertion with AT groups than in the TT insertion only group. We confirmed the effects of adenoidectomy and AT on reduction of the rate of repeated TT insertion by analysis of population-based data.
