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

Introduction: The study was designed to compare the final long-term outcomes of septoplasty with and without unilateral pyriform plasty on the concave side in patients with septal deviation. Materials and Methods: A randomized clinical trial was conducted from 2020 to 2023. Patients were randomly divided into two groups of 30. The control group underwent septoplasty alone (without pyriform plasty). Septoplasty with pyriform plasty was performed for the intervention group. The patient's subjective feelings were compared using the NOSE questionnaire pre- and post-operatively. Six months after surgery, the patients were evaluated objectively using rhinomanometry. Results: The mean age of the patients was 37.07 ± 10.39 years. Based on the rhinomanometry evaluation, the amounts of airflow in the intervention and control groups were 791.23 ± 113.14 (cm Conclusion: Although septoplasty improved the patient's clinical condition by increasing nasal airflow and decreasing airflow resistance, septoplasty with pyriform plasty on the concave side significantly resulted in more favorable outcomes. Level of Evidence: 2.
