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

We aimed to investigate whether ventilator support time influences the occurrence of dysphagia in pediatric trauma patients. This case-series study was conducted in a single pediatric emergency and critical care center from April 2012 to March 2022. Trauma patients aged < 16 years who underwent tracheal intubation were divided into two groups based on the occurrence of dysphagia within 72 h after extubation, and their data were analyzed. Tracheal intubation was performed in 75 pediatric trauma patients, and 53 of them were included in the analysis. A total of 22 patients had post-extubation dysphagia and head trauma. The dysphagia group tended to have more severe head injuries (Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) 4 [4-5] vs. 4 [0-4]; p < 0.05), a longer ventilator support time (7 days [4-11] vs. 1 day [1-2.5]; p < 0.05), and a longer length of hospital stay (27 days [18.0-40.3] vs. 11 days [10.0-21.0]; p < 0.05). Severe head trauma and a long duration of tracheal intubation may be risk factors for dysphagia in pediatric trauma patients. Therefore, early recognition of these risk factors could assist in treatment planning for speech-language pathologist intervention and nutritional routes of administration.
