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

To assess the safety, time consumption and presumed postoperative complications of posterior repositioning in cases with bilateral anterior displaced sigmoid sinus (ADSS) having cochlear implant surgery. Cases with bilateral ADSS were included. A cortical bone chip was harvested. Sinus plate was drilled thin and removed, ADSS was repositioned posteriorly and secured by the bone chips. The procedure was completed using the standard posterior tympanotomy (PT) technique. Follow up was done both clinically and by computed tomography (CT). Out of 632 cases operated upon in more than 7 years, only 7 cases had Bilateral ADSS (1.1%) of which 5 were females (71.45%). The average age was 8.2 ± 12 (6 children and an adult). No intraoperative bleeding was encountered in any of the 7 cases. The average operative time was 103.6 ± 9.7 min. No minor nor major complications were detected in all 7 cases. To keep the advantages of PT, repositioning of ADSS in bilateral cases can be done safely with a reasonable increase in the average operative time.
