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

purposeThis radiologic work aimed to display the alteration in the crista galli (CG) morphology in the pediatric population with advancing age.

methodsThis pediatric examination consisted of computed tomography images of 180 subjects (90 males / 90 females) aged 1-18 years. The width (CGW), height (CGH) and length (CGL) of CG were measured, and its morphological types were noted.

resultsCGW, CGH and CGL were measured as 4.34 ± 1.38 mm, 12.13 ± 3.36 mm and 13.03 ± 2.75 mm, respectively. CGH (p < 0.001) and CGL (p < 0.001) increased with advancing age, but CGW (p = 0.069) did not vary. Three configurations regarding morphological types of CG were observed as follows: the tear-drop type in 83 CGs (46.10%), the tubular type in 64 CGs (35.60%), and the ossified type in 33 CGs (18.30%). Three configurations related to Keros classification were determined as follows: Type 1 in 31 CGs (17.20%), Type 2 in 116 CGs (64.50%), and Type 3 in 33 CGs (18.30%). CG shape types (p = 0.455) and Keros types (p = 0.801) did not correlate with sex. CG pneumatization was found in six (3.3%) children.

conclusionsCGL increased, but did not alter significantly after infancy period. CGW did not correlate with pediatric ages, but CGH increased with advancing age up to prepubescent period. The incidence of Type 1 decreased with advancing age, but the incidence of Types 2 and 3 increased, especially from the late childhood period. All pneumatized CGs were observed after late childhood period.
