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

Peripheral facial nerve palsy is a prevalent type of mononeuropathy that can have a variety of etiologies. Facial nerve damage because of esophagogastroduodenoscopy, however, is exceedingly rare and has only been reported in 1 patient. We report the first case in the United States of a patient who developed left-sided facial nerve palsy after a routine esophagogastroduodenoscopy, with little meaningful recovery of nerve function. We hope to bring awareness to gastroenterologists of this rare complication with potential long-term detrimental effects that can be avoided with the adjustment of equipment and patient position before the procedure.
