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

Introduction: Vocal folds are responsible for sound generation. In unilateral vocal fold paralysis (UVFP), the recurrent laryngeal nerve, which controls the vocal folds, is paralyzed. Medialization laryngoplasty is a surgery in which an implant is inserted to push the paralyzed vocal fold to the centerline to recover phonation. Methods: Here, a numerical simulation is used to calculate flow-related parameters to give insight into what happens in healthy and treated(implanted) vocal folds and their enhancement. In the present work, airflow over vocal folds is modeled considering fluid-structure interaction (FSI) and varying inlet pressure. The governing equations are discretized for fluid and solid domains and solved using the Galerkin finite element method. The boundary conditions for healthy and unilaterally paralyzed vocal folds were imposed to agree with real cases behavior. Results: The results showed the effectiveness of medialization laryngoplasty in treating unilateral vocal fold paralysis concerning healthy vocal folds. Conclusion: This simulation provided a better insight into treatment results for patient-specific cases.
