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

This study aims to test the effectiveness and safety of exteriorization surgery comprising atticotomy and obliteration of the additus ad antrum, also referred to as attic exposition-antrum exclusion (AE-AE) surgery. This surgery combines otoendoscopy with surgical microscopy for the treatment of acquired pars flaccida cholesteatoma in stages Ib and II (according to the classification of the Japan Otological Society) present in the attic and the tympanic cavity. We reviewed a historical cohort of 65 patients. Of the total, 21 were treated with canal wall-up tympanomastoidectomy (CWU). Patients in whom the AE-AE technique was performed had residual and recurrence rates of 0% and 9.1%, respectively, compared with 28.6% and 9.5%, respectively, for those treated with CWU. In the AE-AE procedure, surgery is performed in one stage compared with the two stages in CWU, to address the risk of residual cholesteatoma. Auditory thresholds were higher in the CWU group compared with the AE-AE group in the pre-surgery (53 ± 16 vs. 44 ± 15 dB;
