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

Sphenoid sinus lesions grasp the attention of Otorhinolaryngologists due to their prime location and vital surrounding structures. Once detected, these lesions require prompt investigation to identify the underlying cause, usually attributed to a tumor, fungal infection, sinusitis, or polyps, thus allowing tailored treatment. We report a case of an elderly lady whose neurological presentation lead to the diagnosis of sphenoid sinus lymphoma. We discuss the diagnostic challenge in view of its interesting presenting symptoms as well as the surgical approach risk and limitations.
