Correlation of Preoperative High-resolution Computed Tomography Temporal Bone Findings with Intra-operative Findings in Various Ear Pathologies.

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
High resolution computed tomography (HRCT) is a tool which provide fine details of temporal bone and its associated pathologies which are of extreme use in making diagnosis, to evaluate extension of disease and most important to plan surgical approach. Aim of the present study was to correlate HRCT findings with operative findings in different ear pathologies. This observational, prospective study enrolled 70 patients of different ear pathologies required surgical intervention. They were subjected to HRCT temporal bone and its findings were correlated with surgical findings. Mean age of the study population was 20.3 ± 12.04 years with M: F = 1.12: 1. HRCT showed specificity and sensitivity of 100% and 92.31% respectively in detecting ossicular erosion. It was 100% sensitive and 98.51% specific in detecting LSCC erosion, 85.71% sensitive and 96.83% specific in detecting facial canal dehiscence, 100% sensitive and 98.11% specific in detecting scutum erosion, 75% sensitive and 96.97% specific to detect tegmen erosion, 100% sensitive and 97.01% specific in detecting sinus plate erosion, 100% sensitive and 95.38% specific in detecting high jugular bulb, sensitivity and specificity both are 100% in detecting labyrinthitis ossificans and 100% sensitive in detecting otosclerotic foci. HRCT findings showed a good association with operative findings in terms of sensitivity and specificity. Thus, HRCT is a acceptable tool to make diagnosis and to plan surgical approach.
