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

backgroundA 63-year-old presented with reduced left visual acuity and V1 sensation. Imaging demonstrated left sphenoid osseous meningioma narrowing superior orbital fissure with intracranial extension to superior temporal gyrus.

methodEndoscopic transorbital approach utilising novel lateral orbit 'sliding coach door' osteotomy performed. Lateral canthal incision with lateral canthal ligament division mobilises and decompresses globe infero-medially. Osteotomy performed, tethered by temporalis. Osteotomy slides postero-laterally creating working space lateral to inferior and superior orbital fissures.

conclusionThis technique requires reduced soft tissue dissection and facilitates reconstruction. Adequate working space enabled satisfactory resection with residual dural tail requiring future surveillance. Cosmesis was satisfactory.
