Nasendoscopy to Predict Difficult Videolaryngoscopy: A Multivariable Model Development Study.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2023. 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
backgroundTransnasal videoendoscopy (TVE) is the standard of care when staging pharyngolaryngeal lesions. This prospective study determined if preoperative TVE improves the prediction of difficult videolaryngoscopic intubation in adults with expected difficult airway management in addition to the Simplified Airway Risk Index (SARI).
methods374 anesthetics were included (252 with preoperative TVE). The primary outcome was a difficult airway alert issued by the anesthetist after Macintosh videolaryngoscopy. SARI, clinical factors (dysphagia, dysphonia, cough, stridor, sex, age and height) and TVE findings were used to fit three multivariable mixed logistic regression models; least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression was used to select co-variables.
resultsSARI predicted the primary outcome (odds ratio [OR] 1.33; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.13-1.58). The Akaike information criterion for SARI (327.1) improved when TVE parameters were added (311.0). The Likelihood ratio test for SARI plus TVE parameters was better than for SARI plus clinical factors (
conclusionTVE improved prediction of difficult videolaryngoscopy in addition to traditional bedside airway examinations.
