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

Choanal atresia is a rare congenital anomaly of the nasal cavities characterized by lack of patency of the posterior ends of one or both nasal cavities (choanae). It is the most common congenital anomaly of the nasal cavity. Bilateral choanal atresia accounts for a third of the cases and is almost invariably detected in the neonatal age due to respiratory distress. Detection of bilateral choanal atresia in adulthood is extremely rare and has been reported only a few times. We report a case of a teenage girl who was diagnosed with bilateral choanal atresia after presenting with longstanding snoring and intermittent nasal discharge. She was managed with bilateral transnasal endoscopic choanoplasty to restore the choanal patency.
