[Flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing in neurology].
Review in Der Nervenarzt, 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
backgroundNeurogenic dysphagia is a frequent symptom in a variety of neurological diseases. The establishment of the flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (FEES) in the field of neurology has led to improvements in the diagnostics and treatment of patients with dysphagia.
objectiveThe aim of this review is to present the development of the FEES examination in the field of neurology. Furthermore, the additive value in the diagnostic classification of neurogenic dysphagia is elucidated and the impact on treatment management in patients with dysphagia is highlighted. MATERIAL AND
methodsNarrative literature review.
resultsThe FEES examination is a safe and well-tolerated method for the diagnostics of neurogenic dysphagia. It enables the valid investigation of the swallowing function within the very heterogeneous neurological patient population. It has become an important diagnostic tool, not only in the assessment of the severity of dysphagia and the risk of aspiration but also as a reliable method for the etiological classification of symptoms of deglutition disorders. As FEES can be performed at the bedside and does not require radiation exposure, it can be used not only to examine critically ill patients (point of care diagnostics) but also to monitor treatment.
conclusionThe systematic endoscopic evaluation of swallowing is established as an important functional diagnostic tool in the field of neurology. Further developments to increase the use of FEES in clinically related disciplines such as neurosurgery, neuro-oncology or psychiatry are pending.
