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

Sturge-Weber syndrome (SWS) is characterized by hemangiomas, glaucoma, and central nervous system disorders. Here, we report the case of a 15-year-old boy with SWS and upper-lip hypertrophy who underwent surgical orthodontic treatment for correction of a large overjet and deep overbite. In addition to the a large overjet and deep overbite, interdental spacing was observed in both the arches. The mandible was retrognathic and deviated to the right side. No maxillary occlusal canting or temporomandibular joint symptoms were observed. The patient was diagnosed with skeletal maxillary protrusion with spaced dentition and mandibular deviation to the right due to SWS. After presurgical orthodontic treatment using a multibracket appliance, we performed a sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO) alone due to the presence of a hemangioma around the maxilla. No abnormal bleeding or cerebral hemorrhage due to increased blood pressure was observed during the SSRO. Postoperatively, the maxillary and mandibular arches were well-aligned, the deep overbite and excessive overjet improved, and bilateral angle class I molar and canine relationships were established. Furthermore, mandibular deviation improved, and the midlines of both arches approximately coincided with the facial midline. In conclusion, orthognathic surgery is feasible in patients with SWS after carefully evaluating the sites and sizes of the hemangiomas.
