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

Tracheobronchial foreign body (TFB) aspiration is an uncommon but potentially life-threatening event. This case report discusses the successful extraction of a metallic screw aspirated by a 48-year-old woman with intellectual disability, using flexible bronchoscopy through the i-gel® laryngeal mask under general anesthesia. The i-gel® device proved effective in maintaining airway access and facilitating bronchoscopy, emphasizing its utility in challenging cases. The report underscores the significance of careful assessment, skillful intervention, and multidisciplinary teamwork in managing TFB aspirations, especially in uncooperative patients with comorbidities.
