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

Introduction: The purpose of this study is to compare and infer the most suitable dye for visualisation of ipsilateral and contralateral sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs), positive, negative outcomes, sensitivity, their specificities and visualisation of anastomosed blood vessels in microvascular reconstruction of tongue cancers. Materials and Methods: This is a prospective Results: The present study revealed ICG being the better dye in the parameters mentioned. Discussion: Lymph node yield in neck dissection is a prognostic factor in oral cancers. ICG is inferred as the better dye for identification of SLN with 100% outcomes and in blood vessel visualisation after microvascular free tissue transfers. It is also useful in identifying positive contralateral sentinel nodes, which is helpful in undertaking bilateral neck dissections related to tongue carcinoma.
