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

Background: This is an observational cohort study on patients affected by malignant parotid tumors treated with total parotidectomy. The aim of our work is to analyze and compare the effects and complications after parotidectomy, using or not SurgiMend ®. Methods: 40 patients were retrospectively enrolled between September 2014 and June 2020. Basing on the placement of SurgiMend ® for parotid lodge reconstruction, the samples were divided into two groups. Thus, the incidence rate of complications after the surgical procedure was analyzed between the two groups. Results: Patients in whom SurgiMend ® was used reported a lower rate of complications Conclusion: Although many techniques are available to fill the parotidectomy defect, improve facial contour and prevent Frey's syndrome, the use of SurgiMend ® matrix is one of most effective and reliable method to address these complications, with the advantage of decreased operative time due to not require an additional surgical donor site.
