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

We report the use of endoscopic endonasal surgery for dural reconstruction following a cerebrospinal fluid leak in a 33-year-old patient with recurrent meningitis since at age of 2 years. Magnetic resonance imaging showed osteolytic changes in the left temporal and sphenoid bones, including the left pterygoid plate, a few left temporal encephaloceles, and cerebrospinal fluid-like fluid in the expanded Meckel's cave and the parapharyngeal space. After endoscopic endonasal surgery, Gorham-Stout disease was diagnosed. No recurrence of cerebrospinal fluid leakage or meningitis has been observed. Thus, endoscopic endonasal surgery might improve clinical outcomes in patients with Gorham-Stout disease and skull base defects.
