Long-Term Outcomes of Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve Repair/Reconstruction in Oncological Settings.
Article in Indian journal of surgical oncology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Vocal cord paralysis results from involvement of the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN), either before the surgery or following excision. Coaptation of the resected edges utilising microsurgical techniques is the most promising therapeutic strategy available for RLN excision. The RLN can be repaired by direct epineural coaptation or using nerve grafts adhering to recommended microsurgical techniques. This article aims to convey our experience with RLN resections/injuries and their subsequent effects. We assessed the RLN repairs that our institute had completed from April 2018 to September 2023(5 years and 5 months) including follow-up of minimum 1 year. The Functional Oral Intake Scale (FOSI) was applied to assess dysphagia, aspiration risk, and glottic gap by laryngoscopy, and GRBAS (Grade, Roughness, Breathiness, Asthenia, Strain) comprised the basis for the assessment of voice quality by speech specialists. Surgical technique included using 9-0 Ethilon either for primary repair or for repair with a nerve graft. Ten patients were included in the study; six (60%) of them were male with the median age of 32 years. At 12-month follow-up, only 10% (
