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

backgroundPreservation of intracochlear structures and residual hearing has become a major concern in modern cochlear implant. Consequently, many efforts have been made to minimize intraoperative trauma, especially while cochlear fenestration and electrode insertion.

methodsBuilding on the core concept of "soft surgery", a modified approach, described as diving technique for cochlear implant electrode array insertion is proposed. Steps and technical points are presented with figures, video and review of relevant anatomy.

conclusionsThis novel diving technique is operationally feasible and safe, promising to minimize intraoperative invasion and thus preserve residual hearing in cochlear implant.
