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

Important factors that affect the initial repair of complete bilateral cleft lip (CBCL) include not only the width of the cleft but also the distance between the premaxilla and alveolar bone. We report a case of a patient with CBCL in whom favorable morphological and aesthetical results were achieved by surgical premaxillary setback. The patient was a 5-month-old boy with CBCL, who had a severely protruding premaxilla. Despite repeated lip adhesion before lip closure surgery, wound dehiscence occurred, and therefore, we performed premaxillary setback with vomerine ostectomy. The bone was removed posterior to the vomero-premaxillary suture, and the premaxilla was indirectly stabilized by bilateral mucosal bridging. The procedure for the vomer worked well, and his premaxilla was moved back enough to undergo surgery. The premaxillary setback is thought to be a reasonable option to treat CBCL in patients with a protruding premaxilla. The subsequent long-term follow-up of the midfacial development of these patients is necessary.
