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

An older neutered male Korean Shorthair cat was evaluated for chronic respiratory distress, stertor, dysphagia, and severe weight loss. Radiography and computed tomography revealed nasopharyngeal narrowing and a thin membranous web-like obstructive structure at the laryngopharynx, resulting in near-complete airway obstruction, with concurrent fluid-to-soft tissue attenuating material within the frontal sinus and tympanic bulla. Surgical exploration confirmed a membranous lesion, and histopathology demonstrated chronic ulcerative palatitis without evidence of neoplasia. This case suggests that feline nasopharyngeal stenosis may be associated with a more complex inflammatory laryngopharyngeal web, potentially broadening the currently recognized morphologic spectrum of this condition.
