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

objectivesEvaluate mandibular cortical bone in childhood cancer survivors (CCS) and correlate findings with disease and treatment characteristics.

methodsDental panoramic radiographs of 60 CCS and of 120 age and gender-matched healthy individuals were assessed by two independent observers. Bone was categorized as normal, moderately or severely eroded and its width was calculated at four sites bilaterally. Significant differences were tested using Chi-square and Pearson correlation co-efficient. Possible risk factors were detected by multivariate regression analysis.

resultsForty five percent of CCS had moderately eroded bone, while 67% of healthy individuals normal bone. Mean width was 3.9 mm in CCS (1.9 mm-6.4 mm) and 2.7 mm in healthy controls (1.4 mm-6 mm). None of the above differences were significant. Survivors diagnosed at a younger age had a five times greater probability of presenting mildly eroded bone.

conclusionsNo direct effect of antineoplastic treatment on cortical bone could be demonstrated in the current study, underlying the need for more well-designed studies.
