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

objectiveTo study and analyse the result obtained in cochlear implantation by Veria technique and evaluate the incidence of surgical complications and their management.

methodBetween Jan 1, 2014 to Jan 1, 2019, 602 cochlear implantations by Veria technique were done out of which 576 patients were analysed retrospectively for the study. The age range was between 18 months and 60 years.

resultAll 576 patients were operated by Veria technique. Out of 576 patients, 57 (9.9%) had abnormal cochlear malformation. Cytomegalovirus (CMV) being the most common non genetic cause of congenital hearing loss accounting to 60%. The overall complication rate of 5.5% was observed in 576 implanted patients.

conclusionThe analysis of the results shows that this method has certain advantages, which are: it is simple and therefore the learning curve is fast; it is safe for the facial nerve, as the drilling is precisely controlled by the special perforator; it produces minimal bone trauma and due fast healing, it permits early fitting a few days after operation; it can be used for very small children where the mastoid may have not been yet sufficiently developed.
