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

Congenital nasal masses are very rare presentations. Among these masses is a mucous cyst, which might be considered either a congenital or an acquired mass. Our report presents a case of recurrent dorsal nasal swelling that was initially managed with an open rhinoplasty. However, 1 year after the surgery, the swelling started to grow rapidly, and the patient presented with a disfigured nose. We scheduled the patient for the excision of the dorsal nasal swelling and reconstruction using the dorsal nasal flap approach. Several surgical techniques have been performed and published in the literature; however, this is the first time the dorsal nasal flap technique is being reported as a surgical approach to dorsal nasal mucous cysts. While mucous cyst formation might be congenital, the majority occur after rhinoplasty surgery. However, they can be prevented by minimizing unnecessary trauma during the surgery and ensuring the thorough removal of all epithelial tissue and foreign bodies.
