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

The antegonial notch (AGN) is a structure that has been variably described across studies, with diverse findings regarding its role and association with craniofacial morphology, which is attributed to differing methodologies and the lack of control for sex and size. This study aimed to elucidate the variability of the AGN and examine its association with facial types, skeletal and muscular parameters. This study was carried out using the CT scans of 311 individuals aged 18-95 years. Facial type, skeletal and muscular measurements were recorded. Mann-Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis tests were conducted to examine AGN area differences between the sexes and facial types. Spearman correlation was used to explore the relationships between AGN and the skeletal and muscular parameters. AGN was found to be sex dependent: it was absent in 22.7% of males and 35.1% of females; its size was larger in males than in females (55 mm
