Baska Mask is non-inferior to tracheal tube in preventing airway contamination during controlled ventilation in elective nasal surgeries: A randomised controlled trial.
Article in Indian journal of anaesthesia, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
BACKGROUND AND
aimsBaska Mask, a newly designed third-generation supraglottic device, has a sump where the pharyngeal secretions can collect and be suctioned out continuously. We aimed to study the effectiveness of Baska Mask in preventing airway contamination during nasal surgeries. Our primary objective was to assess airway soiling using fibreoptic bronchoscopy. Total airway manipulation time, haemodynamic parameters during device insertion and post-operative oro-pharyngeal morbidities were the secondary objectives.
methodsEighty-four participants undergoing nasal surgeries were randomised to either have their airway maintained with Baska Mask (Group-BM) or Endotracheal tube (Group-TT). Fibreoptic bronchoscopy was performed at the end of the surgery and the airway was inspected for signs of contamination. Total airway manipulation time, haemodynamic parameters during device insertion and post-operative oro-pharyngeal morbidities were also assessed. Unpaired Student's
resultsTracheal contamination was not observed in any patient in either group. Time taken for device insertion (Group TT: 24.24 ± 6.86 s vs. Group BM: 24.22 ± 7.3 s;
conclusionsBaska Mask is non-inferior to tracheal tube in preventing tracheal contamination in patients undergoing nasal surgeries.
