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

backgroundThe Cochlear™ Osia® System leaves a retroauricular bump that can cause discomfort and poor aesthetic outcome.

methodTo reduce the retroauricular bump, we introduced an implant well in the bone behind the ear for the transducer. We used cutting and diamond drills to create the implant well with an average depth of 4-5 mm. The surgical time including the implant well (40 min) was within the range of reported average surgical time (52 min).

conclusionIntroduction of an implant well resulted in a better aesthetic outcome and improved patients' comfort. The reduced distance between BI300 and ear canal might improve audiological outcome.
