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

objectivesCricothyrotomy is a rescue procedure in "cannot intubate, cannot oxygenate" scenarios where other methods of nonsurgical airway management have failed. We compared 2 cuffed cricothyrotomy sets, bougie-assisted cricothyrotomy (BACT) and novel percutaneous TracheoQuick Plus, on a live porcine model in a simulated periarrest situation.

methodsThirty-four anesthetized minipigs were randomly allocated into two groups: BACT technique (

resultsBACT was significantly faster than TracheoQuick Plus cricothyrotomy, with a median time of 69 sec (IQR 56-85) versus 178 sec (IQR 152-272). The total success rate was without difference. 94% of BACT was performed successfully on the first attempt, while in the TracheoQuick Plus group, it was only 18% (

conclusionsBACT is superior to TracheoQuick Plus cricothyrotomy on a live animal model.
