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

Adenoid hypertrophy (AH) plays a role as a reservoir for bacterial growth and decreases mucociliary clearance which might contribute to the development of an infection. To compare the presence of AH in the pediatric population presenting with orbital complications as a result of ABRS and the control group radiologically. Patients who were diagnosed with OC as a result of ABRS labeled as case group, and the patients who had undergone computed tomography (CT) for indications other than sinonasal diseases were assigned as control group. Both groups were retrospectively reviewed to measure the adenoid, nasopharynx, and adenoid/nasopharynx ratio (ANR) in the axial and mid-sagittal planes. We compared 52 patients from case group to 57 control group. In the CT axial plane, adenoid length was greater in the OC group compared to the control group, with a significant difference (
