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

abstractFor most primary substernal goitre (SG) surgeries, sternotomy is required because the blood supply vessels of tumours come from the mediastinum. However, sternal dehiscence may lead to several surgical complications. We reported an older patient who underwent simultaneous removal of a primary SG and parathyroid adenoma through a gasless transoral endoscopic approach. The patient recovered well with no hoarseness, post-operative bleeding or other complications after the operation. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of gasless transoral endoscopic parathyroid adenoma and primary SG resection in the real world. We found that gasless transoral endoscopic surgery is feasible in patients with small primary SG and parathyroid adenoma.
