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

backgroundSimilar to patients undergoing rhinoplasty, patients undergoing post-Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) nasal reconstruction are concerned with both nasal form and function.

objectivesThe objectives were to identify patient, defect, and surgical characteristics associated with post-MMS nasal reconstruction outcomes. METHODS & MATERIALS: A retrospective single-institution cohort study was conducted of post-MMS nasal reconstruction surgeries occurring between 2015 and 2020. Patient, defect, and surgical details were collected along with nasal aesthetic and functional outcomes. Multivariable logistic regressions were used to analyze data.

resultsA total of 167 nasal MMS defects among 160 patients met the inclusion criteria. The median age was 66 years, and 70% were female. A poor aesthetic outcome (

conclusionPost-MMS nasal reconstruction aesthetic and functional outcomes are associated with obesity, diabetes, and revision surgery. Improved standardization of functional and cosmetic outcomes is important to better understand these results in the future.
