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

The use of video laryngoscopy is growing in patients with anatomical factors suggestive of a difficult airway. This case report describes the successful tracheal intubation of a 54-year-old female patient with limited mouth opening scheduled for third molar extraction under general anesthesia. The Airway scope (AWS) along with a gum-elastic bougie was used to secure the airway after failed direct laryngoscopy and video laryngoscopy using the McGrath MAC with an X-blade. The AWS has a J-shaped structure in which the blade approximates the curvature of the pharynx and larynx. This blade shape makes it easy to match the laryngeal axis with the visual field direction, enabling successful tracheal intubation even for patients with limited mouth opening. A major key to successful video laryngoscopy is to select a video laryngoscope based on the anatomical characteristics of patients with a difficult airway.
