Multidisciplinary Prophylactic Strategies for Recurrence of Laryngeal Edema After Tooth Extraction in a Patient With Hereditary Angioedema: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 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
Hereditary angioedema (HAE), caused by C1-inhibitor (C1-INH) deficiency or dysfunction, is a rare and potentially life-threatening disease that leads to unpredictable recurrent attacks of angioedema in localized regions, including the larynx. As medical or dental procedures can trigger laryngeal edema, resulting in asphyxiation, major global guidelines recommend short-term prophylaxis prior to invasive procedures and long-term prophylaxis to prevent acute attacks and achieve near-normal lives. Here, we report the case of a 63-year-old male who experienced asphyxiation after tooth extraction. Emergency tracheotomy had saved his life at the age of 40 years, before the diagnosis of HAE. At the age of 63, when he had another opportunity for tooth extraction, he was definitively diagnosed with HAE. Administering short-term prophylaxis with ongoing long-term prophylaxis for HAE and perioperative multidisciplinary management for tooth extraction helped prevent recurrent fatal angioedema due to dental procedures and this can be useful when managing patients with HAE.
