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

objectivesTo evaluate the clinical application and curative effect of continuous through-suture of the nasal septum (NS) of patients undergoing nasal septum correction surgery with nasal endoscopy.

methodsA total of 600 patients with deviated NS (DNS) were randomly divided into a tamponade group and a suture group using odd-even admission number (n = 300 cases/group). The visual analog scale (VAS) was used to evaluate the patients’ symptoms 6, 12, 24 and 48 h after surgery based on their experience of nasal pain, congestion, eye discomfort and headache. The postoperative complications of the two groups, including nasal bleeding, hematoma, infection and punch, were also recorded and compared.

resultsWithin 48 h after surgery, the VAS scores for nasal pain, nasal congestion, eye discomfort and headache in the suture group were significantly lower than in the tamponade group (P < 0.05), while no statistically significant difference was observed in postoperative complications between the two groups. Importantly, neither nasal septum hematoma, perforation, nor local infection occurred in either group.

conclusionsContinuous through-suture of the nasal septum can significantly improve the perioperative symptoms and postoperative quality of life without increasing the risk of postoperative complications in patients with DNS.
