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

Direct laryngoscopes and videolaryngoscopes are the dominant endotracheal intubation tools. The styletubation technique (using a video-assisted intubating stylet) has shown its advantages in terms of short intubation time, high success rate, less required stimulation, and operator satisfaction. The learning curve can be steep but is easily overcome if technical pitfalls are avoided. Conditions that make styletubation challenging include secretions/blood, short/stiff neck, restricted mouth opening and cervical spine mobility, anatomical abnormalities over head and neck regions, obesity, etc. In this clinical report, we present the effectiveness and efficiency of the routine use of the styletubation for tracheal intubation in a super-super-obese patient (BMI 103 kg/m
