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

The sympathetic nervous system has been implicated in various physiological and pathological processes, including regulation of homeostatic functions, maintenance of the circadian rhythms, and neuronal disruption and recovery after injury. Of special interest is focus on the role of the superior cervical ganglion (SCG) in regulating the daily changes in pineal function. Removal of the superior cervical ganglion (SCGx) and decentralization have served as valuable microsurgical models to investigate the effects of surgical denervation on this gland or organ. In this chapter, we offer information about methodologies for performing SCGx along with decentralization and denervation procedures, including details about recommended equipment as well as tips that can improve these techniques.
