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

aimThis study uses cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) to determine whether pathology in the maxillary sinus (MS) affects the volume of the palatal cavity.

methods188 individuals, 95 women and 93 men, aged between 17 and 63, were included in the study. MS pathology in the patients and the open-closed status of the maxillary sinus ostium (MSO) were recorded. Palatal volume measurements were performed using open-access ITK-SNAP via CBCT images. Statistical analysis of the study was conducted using SPSS v.21 software (IBM. Chicago. IL. USA), and p<0.05 was considered statistically significant.

resultsThe average palatal volume was 1375.29±313.38 mm

conclusionPalatal cavity volume was affected by maxillary sinus pathologies. Palatal cavity volume increases in the presence of MS pathologies and when MSOs are closed.
