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

Aims: The aim of the present study is to evaluate the clinical applicability of laser energy during an oro-nasal endoscopic approach (ONEA) in the management of the anterior maxillary sinus wall. Methods: An experiment on three adult human cadavers was performed to study the nasal cavities with angled rigid scopes and using the ONEA technique. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of laser energy on the bone, the drilling effect was compared to laser energy (1470 nm diode laser, continuous wave, power 8, 9 and 10 W). Results: Compared to a rigid angled scope, the ONEA technique allowed complete visualization of the anterior wall of the maxillary sinus. Microscopic analysis of frontal bone revealed similar bone Exeresis with high-speed drilling (270.28 μm) and laser approaches (285.73-456.6 μm). Conclusions: The laser ONEA technique is an innovative, mini-invasive, and safe approach to the anterior wall of the maxillary sinus. Additional study is warranted to further develop this technique.
