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

purposeTo characterize the auditory and imaging markers of atypical enlarged vestibular aqueduct (EVA).

methods15 EVA cases (26 ears) confirmed via high-resolution MRI (HRMRI) that did not meet the Valvassori criterion on high-resolution CT (HRCT) were classified as atypical EVA. Another 21 EVA cases (40 ears) meeting the Valvassori criterion were randomly chosen as typical EVA. The hearing loss (HL), HRCT, and HRMRI findings were compared between the two groups.

resultsThe difference of HL severity between atypical and typical EVA was not statistically significant (χ

conclusionThe HL severity of atypical EVA ears was similar to that of typical ones. Nevertheless, borderline, focal dilation and normal-like appearance of VAs on HRCT and variablely slighter dilation of the extraosseous ES on HRMRI are its characteristic imaging findings.
