Dynamic vocal cord behavior and stridor during emergence from general anesthesia in small children with supraglottic airway.
Observational study in Journal of anesthesia, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purposeStridor during emergence from anesthesia is not rare in children managed with supraglottic airway (SGA). However, we know little about the mechanisms of stridor and behavior of the vocal cords (VC). This study aimed to clarify patterns of VC movement and laryngeal airway maintenance function during recovery from anesthesia in children with SGA.
methodsThis is a secondary analysis of data collected from an observational study involving 27 anesthetized children. Using a multi-panel recording system, endoscopic VC image, vital sign monitor, multi-channel tracings of respiratory variables and respiratory sound and patient's view were simultaneously captured in one monitor. Inspiratory and expiratory VC angles formed by lines connecting anterior and posterior commissures were measured at the first spontaneous breath and the breath one minute after the first breath. VC narrowing and dilation were assessed by differences of VC angles.
resultsInspiratory VC narrowing (median (IQR): 5.3 (2.7, 9.1) degree at the first breath) and dilation (- 2.7 (- 3.8, - 1.7) degree at the first breath) were observed in 15 and 12 out of 27 children, respectively. The former group achieved greater tidal volume compared to the latter in one minute. Five children (19%) temporarily developed stridor-like sound from outside with inspiratory VC narrowing. The stridor-like sound was captured by microphones attached to the neck and anesthesia circuit, but was not evident from the chest.
conclusionLaryngeal narrowing occurs in half of the children with SGA during emergence from anesthesia, and temporal stridor-like sound is relatively common. CLINICAL
