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

backgroundAlthough extensive research has been conducted on paranasal sinuses across various human populations and animal species, studies focusing on dogs remain relatively scarce. PURPOSE: This study aimed to characterise the anatomical and morphometric structure of canine paranasal sinuses utilising computed tomography (CT) cross-sectional imaging and three-dimensional (3D) reformatted models.

methodsIn this study, CT images of 14 clinically normal dogs (7 females, 7 males) with a mean age of 6.2 ± 4.3 years were analysed. The localisation and boundaries of the paranasal sinuses, as well as the orientation and morphology of sinonasal openings, were identified through cross-sectional imaging, whereas morphometric characteristics were evaluated using 3D models.

resultsDespite variations in shape among all examined animals, the paranasal sinuses bilaterally consisted of maxillary recess (MR) and frontal sinus (FS) (rostral, medial and lateral). In one 4-year-old male, the rostral FS was absent. The MR exhibited a volume of 4 cm

conclusionAlthough this study was conducted on animals of certain age and sex, without considering breed-specific characteristics, the findings contribute to a more detailed understanding of the cross-sectional and reconstructive anatomy of the region. Moreover, these preliminary reference data may aid radiologists and clinicians in diagnosing sinonasal diseases.
