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: Augmentation laryngoplasty represents a therapeutic choice for patients who suffer from glottic insufficiency of different etiologies. There have been multiple injectables that have been proven effective. The present study examines the short-term effects of vocal fold augmentation on phonation, swallowing, and breathing in individuals with glottic insufficiency. In addition, a decision plan is also proposed. Methods: Data from medical records and operative notes were used to conduct a retrospective cohort study on patients with glottic insufficiency who underwent vocal fold augmentation from 2016 to 2023. Hyaluronic acid, calcium hydroxyapatite, and polydimethylsiloxane were the injectable materials that were used. An analysis was conducted on phonation, breathing, swallowing, and laryngoscopy findings both before and after vocal folds' augmentation. Results: Seventy-nine patients were included, which represents 97 injections. The median (IQR) preoperative Voice Handicap Index-10 (VHI-10) score improved from 21 (15-28) to 16 (9-25) postoperatively ( Conclusions: In case of dysphonia secondary to glottic insufficiency, augmentation laryngoplasty using various injectable materials has proven to be an effective option across a range of different etiologies, as it results in significant improvements in voice quality. The choice of the injectable material depends upon the severity and the etiology of glottic insufficiency.
