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

Correlation between rugoscopy and lateral cephalometric radiographic technique for gender determination is of interest. A cross sectional study was conducted on 100 subjects within an age group of 20 to 50 years. Distribution of rugae patterns and morphometric analysis of maxillary sinus was done for gender correlation. Wavy curved and straight rugae patterns were observed to be more in female gender as compared to males. The mean MSI was higher in females (1.32) when compared with males (1.26). Both the morphometric analysis of maxillary sinus and rugoscopy has been proved to be a valuable tool in the assessment of sexual dimorphism. But, morphometric analysis of maxillary sinus is relatively a new and reliable method for gender determination using maxillary sinus index.
