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.
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: Chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) is a persistent middle ear infection often leading to conductive hearing loss due to ossicular chain damage. Accurate preoperative assessment using high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) is crucial for surgical planning. This study compares preoperative HRCT findings with intraoperative ossicular chain status in CSOM patients. Aims and Objectives: To evaluate the correlation between preoperative computed tomography scans and intraoperative ossicular chain status in CSOM patients. Methodology: The study included 60 CSOM patients aged 12 to 60 years attending the ENT department at Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences, Ranchi. Preoperative HRCT was performed, and intraoperative findings were compared. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS version 17.0. Results: Ossicular erosion was observed in 61.7% of cases, predominantly affecting the incus. HRCT showed high sensitivity and specificity in detecting ossicular chain damage, aligning with intraoperative findings. Conclusion: HRCT provides valuable preoperative insights but should complement intraoperative assessment. Combining both approaches ensures accurate diagnosis and effective management of CSOM.
