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

The superiority of oral cryotherapy (OC) for prevention of chemotherapy-induced oral mucositis (OM) has been demonstrated in several trials. In clinical settings, cooling is usually initiated prior to the chemotherapy infusion. It then continues during the infusion, and for a period after the infusion has been completed. While the cooling period post-infusion depends on the half-life of the chemotherapeutic drug, there is no consensus on when cooling should be initiated prior to the infusion. The lowest achieved temperature in the oral mucosa is believed to provide the best condition for OM prevention. Given this, it was of interest to investigate when along the course of intraoral cooling this temperature is achieved. In total, 20 healthy volunteers participated in this randomized crossover trial. Each subject attended three separate cooling sessions of 30 min each, with ice chips (IC) and the intraoral cooling device (ICD) set to 8 and 15 °C, respectively. At baseline and following 5, 10, 15, 20 and 30 min of cooling, intraoral temperatures were registered using a thermographic camera. The greatest drop in intraoral temperature was seen after 5 min of cooling with IC, ICD
