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

Schwannoma in larynx is a rare presentaion. Laryngeal schwannomas are characterstically slow growing benign tumour usually arising from false cord and aryepiglottic fold with globus sensation being the most common presentation. Seldom it can present as stridor which need immediate intervention for survival of the patient. We present a case of 53 year female who presented with stridor at emergency and emergency tracheostomy was done. This patient had a history of dysphagia to solid food, hoarseness of voice and symptoms of aspirations. 70 degree rigid endoscopy and CEMRI of neck was performed to see the extent of the laryngeal lesion causing stridor. Tumor was excised completely by external transcervical approach. Histopathological reports suggested this tumor as schwannoma. Large obstructive laryngeal schwannoma though a unusual presentation but with immediate tracheostomy, proper diagnostic work up and precise surgical approach can give excellent recovery and post operative outcome for the patient.
