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

Endoscopic push-through cartilage myringoplasty is a minimally invasive procedure for repairing tympanic membrane perforations that eliminates the requirement for canal wall incision and tympanomeatal flap elevation. The study aims to evaluate hearing improvement, graft uptake rate, operative time, and the need for postoperative analgesia in cartilage myringoplasty using push-through technique. This case series study included twenty-eight patients with different sizes of tympanic membrane perforations who underwent cartilage myringoplasty by push-through technique. Successful graft uptake rate was (96.4%). There is an improvement in air conduction from 32.13 ± 5.063 dB to 22,023 ± 3.306 dB and a significant improvement in the average air-bone gape from 19.47 ± 5.342 dB to 10.39 ± 3.462 dB (
