Dysphagia and its effects on swallowing sounds and vibrations in adults.
Article in Biomedical engineering online, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 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
backgroundTo utilize cervical auscultation as a means of screening for risk of dysphagia, we must first determine how the signal differs between healthy subjects and subjects with swallowing disorders.
methodsIn this experiment we gathered swallowing sound and vibration data from 53 (13 with stroke, 40 without) patients referred for imaging evaluation of swallowing function with videofluoroscopy. The analysis was limited to non-aspirating swallows of liquid with either thin (< 5 cps) or viscous ([Formula: see text]) consistency. After calculating a selection of generalized time, frequency, and time frequency features for each swallow, we compared our data against our findings in a previous experiment that investigated identical features for a different group of 56 healthy subjects.
resultsWe found that nearly all of our chosen features for both vibrations and sounds showed significant differences between the healthy and disordered swallows despite the absence of aspiration. We also found only negligible differences between dysphagia as a symptom of stroke and dysphagia as a symptom of another condition.
conclusionNon-aspirating swallows from healthy controls and patients with dysphagia have distinct feature patterns. These findings should greatly help the development of the cervical auscultation field and serve as a reference for future investigations into more specialized characterization methods.
