Feasibility and Applicability of Portable Goose Neck System as a Third Arm for Holding Endoscope in Two Handed Endoscopic ENT Surgeries.

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.
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
Endoscopes have revolutionised and have added a new dimension to the surgical domain. Many surgical techniques have reformed from the open surgical approach to a minimal access endoscopic one. In otolaryngology too, the indications and the use of endoscopes have been increasing in the last few decades. Even in otology, slowly and steadily Wulstein's microscopic techniques have been changing to endoscopic techniques. The only disadvantage of endoscopic ear surgery is that it is a single handed technique as the non dominant hand is utilised in holding the endoscope. We have developed portable endoscope holder based on the Goose neck system with rack and pinion mechanism. The goose neck system acts as a third arm to hold the endoscope. The novel portable endoscope holder bears the potential to provide benefits for various endoscopic ear nose and throat surgeries. We present our experience of feasibility and applicability of this endoscope holder.
