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

Rigid bronchoscopy is a common procedure for central airway obstructions (CAO). Many patients with advanced lesions causing CAO have tenuous, positionally dependent respiratory status which requires additional procedural considerations. This case report describes a 57-year-old man with high grade epithelioid angiosarcoma of the right lung and pleura who underwent placement of a tracheal stent by rigid bronchoscopy in the novel procedural conditions of right lateral decubitus, semi-sitting position with dexmedetomidine, midazolam, and propofol for moderate sedation. Dexmedetomidine, which is currently in use for flexible bronchoscopy due to its analgesic, anxiolytic, and antisialogogue properties performed ideally and should be further evaluated for this indication.
