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

backgroundPostoperative cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak is a life-threatening complication following endoscopic skull base surgery. This study describes a multilayered membrane reconstruction strategy for treating high-flow intraoperative CSF leaks during expanded endoscopic endonasal tumor resection (EEA) and presents the associated outcomes, supplemented by surgical video documentation.

methodsA retrospective review was performed on patients who underwent multilayered membrane reconstruction for high-flow CSF leaks during EEA.

resultsFrom January 2019 to June 2023, 15 patients undergoing EEA experienced high-flow intraoperative CSF leaks and received multilayered membrane reconstruction. Tumor pathologies included pituitary adenoma, craniopharyngioma, and meningioma. After a median postoperative follow-up of 13 months, no postoperative CSF leakage, intracranial infection, meningitis, and pneumocephalus was detected.

conclusionOur preliminary experience indicates that the multilayered membrane reconstruction technique may be a reliable method for achieving a watertight closure of high-flow intraoperative CSF leaks during EEA and warrants further study.
