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

The aim of the study was to investigate the relations between anatomical structures that are susceptible to inadvertent injuries during the surgery using preoperative computed tomography (CT) scans. 153 CT scans were reviewed and the distance from the lamina papyracea (LP) to the midline and the distance of the anterior ethmoidal artery (AEA) to the skull base were measured bilaterally. Also, the depth of olfactory fossa was measured and categorized using the Keros classification. The measurements were analyzed to determine whether LP-to-midline distance was correlated with the distance between the AEA and the skull base and Keros classification. Additionally, correlation of Keros classification with the distance from the AEA to the skull base was investigated. In a total of 306 measurements, 26 (%8.49) were classified as Keros type I, 200 (65.35%) as Keros type II and 80 (25.14%) as Keros type III. Statistically, LP-to-midline distances on the right and left sides were significantly associated with the distance from the AEA to the skull base on the same side (R:p < 0.001, L:p = 0.01) and the Keros classification on the same side (R:p < 0.001, L:p = 0.004). Also, a significant association was found between the Keros classification and the distance from the AEA to the skull base (R:p < 0.001, L:p = 0.02). The locations of anatomical structures are defined in relation to each other during the development of maxillofacial bones. CT scans should be examined and anatomical structures and relations among them reviewed very carefully before ESS. Otherwise, some accidental injuries may arise during the surgery while trying to avoid complications.
