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

introductionSince the early use of the endoscopic view for treating simple intrasellar pituitary adenomas, the skull base surgery has experienced an unprecedented revolution elevating the treatment of skull base lesions to the next level in proficiency and excellence of care.

methodsWe have reviewed the preclinical and clinical evidence supporting the use of the endoscope in the treatment of skull base lesions. In this article, we aim to discuss and provide a wide view of the current indications and future perspectives of the endoscopic endonasal approaches (EEA) and of the endoscopic transcranial approaches.

resultsAs in the development of any other technique, EEA have gone through a transformation process from theoretical anatomic models to a pragmatic clinical use. Along the way, EEA have required several modifications, as well as pushbacks in the application of this technique in some indications. This process has resulted in the provision of an additional tool to the current surgical armamentarium that allows the skull base surgeon to face most challenging lesions along the skull base.

conclusionsThe judicious combination of transcranial and endoscopic-transnasal approaches warrants highest chances of achieving satisfactory tumors resection with a reduced risk of complications.
