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

(1) Background: Twisted carotid bifurcations (CBs) lead to lateralized external carotid arteries (ECAs). Such variants are usually reported on a case-by-case basis. We aimed to study the anatomical possibilities of the axial spin of CB. (2) Methods: Determinations were made bilaterally on a retrospectively assessed sample of 150 cases, 88 males and 62 females. The following types of the axial spin of the CB were determined: type CK1-CB in the coronal plane, with ICA lateral of ECA; type CK3-CB in the coronal plane, with ECA lateral of ICA; the oblique type OK1, with the ECA antero-medial of ICA; the oblique type OK3a, with the ICA antero-medially; the oblique type OK3b, with the ICA postero-laterally; the sagittal type SK2a, with ECA anterior of ICA. (3) Results: In the overall group of 300 CBs, type OK1 was found in 40%, type OK3a in 1%, type OK3b in 2%, type CK1 in 9%, type CK3 in 5.67%, and type SK2a in 42.33% of the bilateral BC group. The types SK2a (46.67%) and OK1 (33.33%) prevailed on the right side. The types OK1 (46.67%) and SK2a (38%) prevailed on the left side. There was no statistically significant association between gender and left or right subtypes. A very strong symmetry existed between the left and right sides (Pearson Chi2 = 53.93
