Case Report: Compromised Airway Following Anesthesia and Its Correlation With the Use of ACE Inhibitors-An Unexpected Clinical Event and Review of Literature.

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
Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors associated angioedema involving the upper aerodigestive tract is indisputably a hazardous airway condition which is clinically poorly recognized and frequently underestimated. We describe and present case of a 70-year old man on ramipril who developed massive tongue swelling post-operatively after unremarkable laryngeal mask anaesthesia which was fortuitously managed conservatively. High index of suspicion, timely recognition and knowledge of pathophysiology and the clinical course should guide airway and further supportive management in these patients.
