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

BACKGROUND/

aimsImpedance analysis using high-resolution impedance manometry (HRIM) enables the recognition of pharyngeal residue in patients with oropharyngeal dysphagia. The aims of this study were to evaluate appropriate criteria for impedance analysis in a large patient cohort, as well as the diagnostic accuracy and agreement of analysis performed by HRIM trainees.

methodsWe reviewed 33 controls (13 males; median age, 61.2 years) and 104 oropharyngeal dysphagia patients (61 males; median age, 70.4 years) who underwent a flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing study (FEES) and HRIM. Two experts compared the pharyngeal residue on FEES and impedance color pattern at 1,000, 1,500 and 2,000 Ω of the impedance bar. Three trainees were given a 60 minutes tutorial to determine the diagnostic accuracy and agreement of this analysis.

resultsThe diagnostic sensitivity of experts for predicting liquid residue was 73.1% for 1,000 Ω, 96.2% for 1,500 Ω and 100% for 2,000 Ω. Significantly higher sensitivity was observed at 1,500 Ω compared to 1,000 Ω (P < 0.001). The diagnostic specificity of experts for liquid residue was 98.3% for 1,000 Ω, 96.6% for 1,500 Ω and 83.1% for 2,000 Ω. There was a higher specificity at 1,500 Ω compared to 2,000 Ω (P = 0.008). The κ value among the 3 trainees was 0.89 and the diagnostic accuracy of the trainees for liquid residue was comparable to that of the experts.

conclusionsThe impedance analysis at 1,500 Ω provides more accurate information for the detection of liquid residue, irrespective of the level of expertise.
