Airway Emergencies Due to Anterior Mediastinal T-Lymphoblastic Lymphoma Managed With Planned Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation and Endotracheal Stent: A Case Report and Literature Review.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Anterior mediastinal tumors can occasionally cause acute respiratory failure by compressing the trachea and bronchi. In such cases, sedative muscle relaxants during tracheal intubation can cause fatal complete tracheal obstruction. We encountered a 15-year-old male patient with T-lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LBL) of the anterior mediastinum. For his airway emergency due to the stenosis extended from the lower part of the trachea to the tracheal bifurcation, venovenous (VV) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) was introduced from the femoral vein under local anesthesia. After a short period of tracheal intubation management, an endotracheal stent (ES) was immediately placed in the lower trachea. We performed a needle biopsy, and he was diagnosed with T-LBL. Following the diagnosis, chemotherapy was introduced. The ES was able to secure sufficient tracheal diameter, and ECMO and ventilation were promptly discontinued. In the case of tracheal stenosis from the lower part of the trachea due to anterior mediastinal tumor, depending on the degree of stenosis, VV ECMO can be considered. Moreover, ES can lead to early weaning from VV ECMO and a ventilator.
