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

Paragangliomas are a rare form of highly vascularized tumors that originate from paraganglia Baysal (J Med Genet 39: 617-622, 2002). In the head and neck PGL arise primarily in four distinct areas: vagal, middle ear, and larynx and more frequently carotid bifurcation. Imaging evaluations include sonography, color Doppler, US-elastosonography and contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS). Additionally, Computed Tomography, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) as well as digital subtraction angiography can be performed Stoeckli et al. (Laryngoscope 112: 143-146, 2002). We present herein a case of a rare bilateral carotid body tumor assessed with multiparametric ultrasound evaluation, including CEUS and US-elastography.
