1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Tracheal stenosis is a common complication of prolonged endotracheal intubation or tracheostomy, that can be classified as simple (without cartilage involvement) or complex (with cartilaginous support involvement). We report a case of a post-COVID-19 tracheal stenosis with fibrotic bridges between the tracheal walls, creating a net within the lumen and causing significant respiratory distress. The absence of cartilaginous support involvement allowed a definitive bronchoscopic treatment with complete and permanent resolution of stenosis.
