Swallowing Safety and Efficiency Impairment Profiles in Individuals with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis.
Article in Dysphagia, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 28 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
Dysphagia is common in individuals with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and associated with reductions in quality of life and health-related outcomes. Despite the high prevalence of dysphagia in ALS, functional impairment profiles of swallowing safety and efficiency have not been comprehensively examined. We therefore aimed to determine the relative prevalence of unsafe and inefficient swallowing in a large cohort of individuals with ALS. We further sought to examine the impact of global and bulbar disease progression (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Functional Rating Scale-Revised "ALSFRS-R" total and bulbar scores, respectively), disease duration, and onset type on swallowing impairment profiles. One hundred individuals with ALS completed a standardized videofluoroscopic swallowing examination Two independent and blinded raters performed validated ratings of safety (Penetration-Aspiration Scale, PAS) and efficiency (Analysis of Swallowing Physiology: Events, Kinematics, and Timing, ASPEKT % residue). Binary classifications of safety (unsafe: PAS ≥ 3), efficiency (inefficient: total residue ≥ 3% of C2-4
