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 evaluate the safety and efficacy of bronchoscopic interventions in the management of tissue-engineered tracheal graft (TETG) stenosis. STUDY

designAnimal research study.

methodsTETGs were constructed with seeded autologous bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells on a bioartificial graft. Eight sheep underwent tracheal resection and orthotopic implantation of this construct. Animals were monitored by bronchoscopy and fluoroscopy at 3 weeks, 6 weeks, 3 months, and 4 months. Bronchoscopic interventions, including dilation and stenting, were performed to manage graft stenosis. Postdilation measurements were obtained endoscopically and fluoroscopically.

resultsSeven dilations were performed in six animals. At the point of maximal stenosis, the lumen measured 44.6 ± 8.4 mm

conclusionDilation has limited efficacy for managing TETG stenosis, whereas stenting has a more lasting clinical effect. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: NA. Laryngoscope, 127:2219-2224, 2017.
