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

Cold-steel has served as the gold standard modality of phonosurgery for most of its history. Surgical laser technology has revolutionized this field with its wide use of applications. Additional modalities have also been introduced such as coagulative lasers, photodynamic therapy, and cryotherapy. This review will compare the surgical modalities of cold steel, surgical lasers, phototherapy and cryotherapy. The mechanism of action, tissue effects and typical uses will be addressed for each modality.
