An Exploratory Study of Hyoid Visibility, Position, and Swallowing-Related Displacement in a Pediatric Population.

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
Hyoid position and swallowing-related displacement has been studied in healthy adults and adults with dysphagia, but research is limited in children. The aim of this study was to investigate feasibility of visualizing and measuring position and swallowing-related displacement of the hyoid bone in children. We explored relationships between hyoid displacement, age and aspiration risk scores. Pediatric swallowing data were extracted from a videofluoroscopy database containing recordings from 133 children aged 9 days to 21 years (mean 36 months, SD 3 years) referred for videofluoroscopy due to concerns regarding their feeding. Children presented with varying etiologies: neurological, structural, respiratory, and other diagnoses. Still shot images were extracted for the frame of hyoid peak position and a frame showing the hyoid at rest. Pixel-based image analysis software was used to measure hyoid position in three directions (X = anterior, Y = superior, XY = hypotenuse) relative to C4 vertebra. Difference between rest and peak position was used to measure hyoid displacement (X, Y and XY). The hyoid was not visible in children < 9 months, but could be reliably visualized and measured in 49 children. Descriptive statistics were collected for hyoid parameters. Age was significantly associated with rest (Y and XY) and peak (Y and XY) hyoid position parameters as well as anterior displacement. No significant associations were observed between hyoid parameters and aspiration risk scores. This study successfully explored hyoid visibility, position and swallowing-related displacement in a pediatric population. Hyoid can be reliably visualized and tracked through videofluoroscopy in children > 9 months of age.
