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

In this paper, a method of automatic surgical planning for mandibular osteotomy based on automatic identification of mandibular landmark points was proposed with facial skeletal contour surgery. A mandibular osteotomy plane optimization model was established, allowing key anatomical measurement parameters to be obtained. The analysis of the preoperative CT images of 100 patients with mandibular osteotomy showed that the average RMS error of the automatic identification algorithm was 1.87 ± 0.33 mm. To verify the effectiveness of the mandibular angle osteotomy surgical planning system on real cases, three clinical trials were conducted, and the results of the surgical planning scheme could meet the clinical needs.
