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

Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of swallowing rehabilitation training with a balloon dilation therapy on the deglutition function and quality of life of patients with dysphagia after radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Methods: The study was a retrospective study. The data of the 100 patients with dysphagia after NPC radiotherapy in our hospital between April 2021 and April 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were separated into the control group ( Results: The scores of Kubota's water swallow test, penetration aspiration scale (PAS), and Yale pharyngeal residue severity rating scale (YPR-SRS) in the experimental group after treatment were (2.04 ± 0.66), (2.92 ± 1.07), and (2.42 ± 0.90), respectively, which were remarkably lower than (2.58 ± 0.78), (4.38 ± 1.51), and (2.78 ± 0.86) in the control group, with distinct differences in the data between both the groups ( Conclusion: Swallowing rehabilitation training in combination with a balloon dilation therapy can improve the deglutition function in patients with dysphagia after NPC radiotherapy as well as their quality of life, with a clinical application value.
