Evaluation of the use of the channeled King Vision video laryngoscope in improving glottic visualisation in patients with limited glottic view with the Macintosh laryngoscope: A prospective observational study.
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 8 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
aimsThe role of King Vision videolaryngoscope (KVL) is well known in the anticipated difficult airway. However, its performance in patients with unanticipated restricted view of the glottis has never been investigated. The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of KVL in patients with limited glottic view (POGO score <50%).
methodsEighty-five patients fulfilling the inclusion criteria were included in this study. Laryngoscopy was performed in each patient with Macintosh blade followed by the channeled KVL. The laryngeal view obtained with each device was recorded using POGO score and Cormack--Lehane (CL) grade. After that, endotracheal intubation was attempted with the KVL. The haemodynamic parameters, the time taken for endotracheal tube placement and intubation, failure to intubate, modified intubation difficulty score and airway complications were also recorded.
resultsThere was a statistically significant improvement in the POGO scores with the use of KVL: 20 (0,40) vs 90 (40,100) (
conclusionChanneled KVL when used by experienced operators provides superior laryngeal view as compared to Macintosh laryngoscope in patients with restricted glottic view (POGO score <50%) without any major airway complications.
