Comparison of perioperative indicators, treatment efficacy, and postoperative complications between tonsillotomy and tonsillectomy for children with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome.

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.
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
objectiveThis study aimed to compare the perioperative indicators, treatment efficacy, and postoperative complications between tonsillotomy and tonsillectomy for children with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome.
methodsA total of 134 children with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome were divided into tonsillotomy group (n=66) and tonsillectomy group (n=68). The tonsillotomy group received tonsillotomy treatment with a power cutter, while the tonsillectomy group received tonsillectomy treatment. The perioperative indicators, treatment efficacy, and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups.
resultsThere was no significant difference in operative time between the two groups (p>0.05), with significant difference in amount of blood loss, postoperative Visual Analogue Scale score, food intake amount, and general diet-taking starting time between the two groups (p<0.05). The total effective rate of treatment had no significant difference between the two groups (p>0.05). There was significant difference in postoperative bleeding, upper respiratory tract infection, and pharyngeal scar grade between the two groups (p<0.05).
conclusionsCompared with tonsillectomy treatment for children with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome, tonsillotomy treatment is more beneficial to optimize the perioperative indicators, relieve the postoperative pain, facilitate the postoperative recovery, and reduce the postoperative complications, which is worthy of clinical promotion.
