Clinical analysis of bronchoscope diagnosis and treatment for airway foreign body removal in pediatric patients.
Article in Italian journal of pediatrics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
backgroundAlong with the wide spread application and technical development of the flexible and rigid bronchoscopy, the airway foreign body removing method cme to the specific technique for different foreign bodies from the single foreign body forceps.
methodsSelected 633 children who were diagnosed as airway foreign bodies by the Department of Respiratory Intervention, Children's Hospital affiliated to Shandong University from January 1st, 2018 to December 31st, 2021, and the airway foreign bodies were diagnosed using bronchoscopy. After comprehensive assessment of the foreign body nature in the airway, the foreign bodies were removed by freezing, laser, electrocoagulation, balloon and other techniques, the success rate of the foreign body removed from the airway was observed, the percentage of the foreign body removed using different techniques, the operation time, and the incidence of post-adverse reactions during operation.
resultsThe success rate using flexible bronchoscope alone to remove foreign bodies in the airway was 99.2%. After flexible bronchoscopy, 19 cases of foreign bodies were removed by vacuum suction alone, 513 cases were removed by foreign body forceps alone, 62 cases were combined with cryotherapy, 2 cases were electrocoagulation, 6 cases were mesh baskets, 3 cases were balloons, 5 cases were laser, and various 18 cases of foreign bodies were invloved by technical combination. 5 cases of flexible bronchoscope combined with rigid bronchoscope combined to remove foreign bodies. The operation time was from 5 min to 1 h, with an average of 20 min. There were 17 cases of hypoxemia (2.7%) during operation, 36 cases (5.7%) of bleeding caused by airway mucosa injury after treatment, and 70 cases (11.2%) of laryngeal edema. The total incidence of adverse reactions was 19.6%, there were no deaths due to foreign bodies and treatment.
conclusionsAccording to different properties of airway foreign bodies, it is safe and effective to select appropriate techniques to remove foreign bodies using the flexible bronchoscope, which can increase the removal rate of airway foreign bodies and reduce the occurrence of serious complications.
