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

Objective: Computer assistance has become indispensable in the reconstruction of the orbit and midface. Although these are key areas of an individual's esthetic appearance, defects or deformities of the midface, especially those of the orbit, are treated diversely. Methods: The aim of this article is to present the wide utility of computer-assistance in modern craniomaxillofacial surgery, including virtual planning, computer-aided design, guided surgery, navigational control, patient-specific implants, and quality control via image fusion. Results: There have been rapid advances in both digital planning and manufacturing processes, with continual improvements. Conclusions: Patient-specific implants have pushed the boundaries of reconstructive surgery in all surgical specialties.
