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

ObjectiveTo compare longitudinal speech outcomes at ages 5 and 10 years in foreign-born and Swedish-born children with cleft palate with or without cleft lip (CP ± L), and assess impact of cleft type, additional diagnosed conditions, sex, and age at completed primary palatal surgery.DesignLongitudinal, registry-based cohort study.SettingRegional public care university hospitals in Sweden.Participants723 children (143 foreign-born, 580 Swedish-born) with CP ± L.InterventionsPrimary and secondary palatal surgery, and speech-language therapy.Main outcome measuresDichotomized outcomes of velopharyngeal competence (VPC), percentage of consonants correct (PCC), and non-oral speech errors, and received secondary palatal surgery and speech-language therapy.ResultsA significantly lower proportion of foreign-born than Swedish-born 5-year-olds had VPC (75% vs. 85%,
