Pneumatic stenting in the surgical candidacy assessment for cough variant expiratory central airway collapse.

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
Expiratory Central Airway Collapse (ECAC) is a multifactorial, underdiagnosed entity that poses unique challenges. Airway stenting is used as a predictor for successful outcomes after central airway stabilization surgery via tracheobronchoplasty (TBP). This approach may pose suboptimal performance in certain ECAC variants. We hypothesize that Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP), used as a pneumatic stent, could be a non-invasive alternative to evaluate surgical candidacy in cough-predominant ECAC presentations. We report on a 67-year-old female with a history of chronic cough and confirmed ECAC. After optimization of medical therapy without significant relief and unsuccessful stent trial. We opted to perform CPAP trial during exercise, the patient exercised on a treadmill, and CPAP was applied at two levels (9 cmH
