Feasibility of CBCT in Diagnosing Otosclerosis by Measuring CBCT Bone Density: A Preliminary Study.

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
The aim of this study was to measure cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) derived bone density of 6 anatomic points around the otic capsule in preoperative assessment of patients with clinically suspected otosclerosis, and to compare these densities with control group. CBCT images of 21 patients (34 ears, the otosclerosis group) with surgically confirmed otosclerosis and 26 patients (52 normal ears, the control group) were evaluated in this prospective study. Six regions of interest (ROI) were set manually around the otic capsule with the slice thickness of 0.3 mm. The mean CBCT bone density these regions were measured and compared in the case and control groups. In the case group, the mean CBCT bone density at the fissula ante fenestram (FAF) was significantly lower than the control group. Moreover, at the 4 points of the other ROIs (3-6) CBCT bone densities were significantly lower in the case group compared to the control group (
