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 diagnosis of coronoid process hyperplasia (CPH) is usually based on symptoms and radiological imaging. Because of its similar symptoms, it can be confused with temporomandibular joint diseases. Therefore, an objective and reproducible way of diagnosis should be determined.

aimTo investigate CPH using Levandoski analysis on panoramic radiographs to determine its prevalence.

methodsA total of 300 panoramic radiograph images (600 coronoid processes) were examined. Having measured the Condyle-Gonion (Cd-Go) and Coronoid-Gonion (Cor-Go) distances, the Cor-Go:Cd-Go ratio was calculated for the left and right sides of each image.

resultsThere was a statistically significant difference in Cd-Go and Cor-Go distances between male and female participants (

conclusionCd-Go and Cor-Go distances were statistically significantly increased in males on both the left and right sides. The ratio of Cor-Go:Cd-Go was preserved in both genders. The prevalence of CPH was found to be 0.3%.
