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

purposeTo verify whether the breathing mode interferes with surface periorbital temperatures and propose a thermographic analysis method for this region.

methodsExploratory, observational, cross-sectional study. Thermographic images of 14 mouth-breathing and 14 nasal-breathing children were collected and analyzed using the Visionfy program (Thermofy®, Brazil) with breast 1 color scale. The ellipse tool delimited the region of interest (periorbital region) and a customized shape subdivided the region of interest into four arcs. The study collected maximum, mean, and minimum absolute and standardized temperatures of the arcs and performed interrater and intrarater comparisons and comparative analysis of temperatures between groups. Temperatures in the group of mouth breathers were compared with pruritus, hyperemia, tearing, and ocular edema.

resultsthe intrarater agreement indicated a satisfactory result for most analyzed temperatures. The interrater agreement, in general, was excellent for maximum, good for mean, and poor for minimum temperatures. The association between periorbital data and temperatures showed an association between ocular edema and temperatures in the upper and lower right arcs and between pruritus and the maximum temperature in the lower right arc.

conclusionthe method had satisfactory intrarater and interrater agreement for maximum and mean temperatures. Ocular edema was associated with temperatures in the group of mouth breathers. Breathing mode was not associated with periorbital temperature.
