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 the present report, we described a case of anticipated difficult intubation in which the access to airway was limited due to external and internal factors. Our patient presented with a large goitre, shortness of breath and mild stridor. A clinical examination and investigations were performed. An intra-tracheal subglottic mass visible on a positron emission tomography scan was nearly occluding the lumen. The clinical diagnosis was thyroid cancer with intra-tracheal invasion. For patients with a large thyroid cancer, airway management can be complicated, using both regional invasion and intrathoracic extension, due to the effect of the mass on the airway and major vessels. This approach has a great potential for leading to complete airway obstruction after the induction of general anaesthesia. Here, we aimed to discuss the meticulous planning and preparation for the intubation of a conscious patient using different procedures of airway management, especially when the fibreoptic intubation failed and awake videolaryngoscopy salvaged the situation.
