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

Objectives: The ultimate aim of this study was to evaluate surgical ambidexterity among oral and maxillofacial surgery residents after hand-eye coordination exercises on cleft palate surgical simulator. Material and Methods: This study was conducted on 29 residents of oral and maxillofacial surgery to evaluate their ambidexterity before and after hand-eye coordination (HEC) exercises. The participants were asked to place three simple interrupted sutures with their right and left hand on the cleft palate surgical simulator (CPSS) under the influence of a stopwatch before and after performing 3 HEC exercises namely holding gauze with chop sticks in both hands, trataka asana, balancing a ball on tennis racket with both hands for a period of 21 days. Each participant's level of ambidexterity and HEC was assessed on Arduino based mirrortracer model on day 1 and day 21. Results: The results show that the residents were able to place three simple interrupted sutures on the CPSS with the right and left hand more precisely and with less time taken post-HEC exercises ( Conclusion: This study improved the surgical ambidexterity of oral and maxillofacial surgery residents before and after hand-eye coordination exercises on cleft palate surgical simulator.
