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

The present investigation summarizes relevant symptoms, differential diagnosis, imaging, and treatment options of Eagle Syndrome. A comprehensive literature review of peer-reviewed literature was employed utilizing most relevant databases. The diagnoses of Eagle Syndrome have recently increased because of increased awareness of physicians of Eagle Syndrome and the earlier identification of the cardinal symptoms of the disease. The most important symptoms are dysphagia in the setting of cervical neck pain, but there is a wide variety of symptomatology that make Eagle Syndrome a challenge to recognize and diagnose clinically. CT scan continues to be the standard of care for diagnosing Eagle Syndrome and CT Angiography has an important role in aiding diagnosis as well. Medical treatment options include steroids, antidepressants, and anticonvulsants however not all cases of Eagle Syndrome can be managed medically. Surgical approaches are varied but typically are either extraoral or transoral. This report aims to update providers on the important diagnostic criteria of Eagle Syndrome and how physicians can develop a treatment plan that addresses all the symptoms of patients with Eagle Syndrome because it can be treated safely and appropriately.
