Awake Fiberoptic Nasotracheal Intubation and Anesthetic Management of a Patient With a Compressed and Deviated Airway From a Massive Thyroid Goiter: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Difficult airway management is a challenge for anesthesiologists, requiring proper assessment, planning, and sometimes a multidisciplinary approach to establish a secure airway. Here we present a case where the patient had a large thyroid goiter with significant tracheal compression. Due to the large size of the thyroid mass and the location of tracheal narrowing, fiberoptic intubation appeared to be challenging, and a surgical airway was not a viable option to obtain a secure airway for a total thyroidectomy. This case report discusses awake fiberoptic intubation and intraoperative anesthetic management of a patient with known airway compression and explores the alternative method for obtaining a definitive airway through venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.
