Temporal Trends of Pediatric Dysphagia in Hospitalized Patients.
Article in Dysphagia, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 26 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 objective of this study was to determine temporal trends of dysphagia diagnoses in hospitalized children. This is a retrospective observational study from the 1997-2012 Kids' Inpatient Database (KID) conducted in the setting of weighted hospitalizations in a KID participating center. More than 6 million pediatric admissions were captured in each triennial KID report. Main outcomes included triennial rates of dysphagia diagnosis in hospitalized pediatric patients, and secondary outcomes included rates of dysphagia in premature and low-birthweight infants. Dysphagia diagnoses were coded in 5107/6607653 (0.08%) of these admissions in 1997, rising to 27,464/6,675,222 (0.41%) in 2012 (p < 0.001). The portion of these diagnoses in premature neonates has been increasing over time from 162/9551 (1.7%) in 2003 to 1027/27,464 (3.7%) by 2012 (p < 0.001). Similarly, low-birthweight children constituted 40/5107 (0.8%) of dysphagia diagnoses in 1997, a number that increased to 762/27,464 (2.8%) in 2012. Rates of dysphagia are increasing nationally, particularly in premature and low-birthweight infants, which may represent an increase alongside other neuroanatomic abnormalities. This growing problem illustrates the need for better data on the comparative efficacy of diagnostic and treatment modalities.
