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

opinion statementTemporal bone paragangliomas (TBPs) are indolent, classically benign and highly vascular neoplasms of the temporal bone. There are two types of TBPs, tympanomastoid paragangliomas (TMPs) and tympanojugular paragangliomas (TJPs). The most common symptoms are hearing loss and pulsatile tinnitus. Diagnostic workup, besides conventional physical and laboratory examinations, includes biochemical testing of catecholamine and genetic testing of SDHx gene mutations as well as radiological examination. Although surgery is traditionally the mainstay of treatment, it is challenging due to the close proximity of tumor to critical neurovascular structures and thus the high risk of complications, especially in patients with advanced lesions. Radiotherapy and active surveillance have been increasingly recommended for selected patients. Decision on treatment should be made comprehensively. Curative effect depends on various factors. Long-term follow-up with clinical, laboratory, and radiological examinations is essential for all patients.
