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

In acute respiratory insufficiency, oxygenation and/or ventilation support by mechanical ventilation is an integral part of intensive care and emergency medicine. Effective airway management is essential to prevent hypoxic complications during the securing of the airway. This includes for example the recognition of difficult airways and adequate pre-oxygenation. While the laryngeal tube can be used in the context of cardiopulmonary resuscitation in emergency medicine, endotracheal intubation is standard in intensive care medicine. In addition to direct laryngoscopy (DL), indirect laryngoscopy using video laryngoscopy (VL) is also available. Compared to DL, advantages in intubation success, anticipated difficult airways, and a reduction of mucosa damage have been shown for VL, whereas the advantage for intubation success could only be demonstrated for experienced physicians who should always be present due to the potential complications of intubation. With regard to mortality and incidence of hypoxia, no difference between DL and VL could be shown. According to current data, the VL should not be used preclinically. A tracheostomy is often performed for long-term ventilation. It is still unclear which patients benefit from an early tracheostomy. Usually the bed-side percutaneous dilatation tracheostomy technique is used, which is often performed under bronchoscopic guidance.
