Radiological Evaluation of Middle Cranial Fossa Dura in Patients with Unilateral Cholesteatoma.

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
Cholesteatoma is a common disease of the middle ear cleft associated with several complications, Surgery is the mainstay for the management of such a pathological condition, however, complications may occur including intracranial ones due to violation of middle cranial fossa dura. Anatomical variations have been reported and High-resolution CT scan is the major tool for detecting such variations. In this study, we aim to determine if there is a difference between tegmen height between both sides of patients with unilateral cholesteatoma. 21 patients were recruited for such study all underwent HRCT and the tegmen height was determined in two coronal planes, the first between the central point of the Henle spine and the tegmen, the other between the plane of both lateral canals and the roof of the middle ear. The tegmen height measurements showed that the affected side had significantly lower tegmen height Henle spine (6.30 ± 1.54 vs. 9.03 ± 1.34 (mm);
