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

objectivesTo compare differences in craniofacial growth prediction results for Korean and American children according to growth prediction models developed using Korean and American longitudinal growth data. MATERIALS AND

methodsGrowth prediction models based on cephalometric landmarks were built for each population using longitudinally taken lateral cephalograms of Korean children and American children of northern European origin. The sample sizes of the serial datasets were 679 and 1257 for Korean and American children, respectively. On each cephalogram, 78 cephalometric landmarks were identified. The prediction models were based on the partial least squares method with 160 input and 154 output variables. For each group, growth was predicted by applying the prediction models developed using data from the same and different populations. The growth prediction results were compared and analyzed.

resultsThe growth prediction results obtained with the prediction model developed using data from the same population were more accurate (P < .0001). The results distinctively visualized the discrepancies in the growth prediction results if different population types were not considered.

conclusionsApplying a growth prediction model generated using data from the same population may be desirable.
