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

Study Design: Technical note. Objective: Changes in orbital volume can lead to esthetic and functional complications of the orbit. In this article, the procedure to calculate the orbital volume using the open source software Aliza 3D DICOM is described. Methods: This article describes the steps to use this novel software. To validate the software, the normal orbital volume was calculated bilaterally on CT scans with normal orbital anatomy. The volumes of unilateral orbitozygomatic fracture cases were compared. Results: This open source software has easy access. The normal orbital volume calculated using this software was 24.4 cc ± 0.72. In the unilateral orbitozygomatic fracture cases, an increased orbital volume was calculated. Conclusions: This easy access, inexpensive, and convenient computer aided software can be used to calculate orbital volume facilitating treatment plan for correction of the orbit volume.
