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

Foreign body (FB) aspiration is one of the most common life-threatening emergencies in children and one of the leading causes of mortality in the pediatric population. Most commonly, aspirated items are organic materials, such as nuts and seeds. Inorganic objects are usually plastic or metal. Symptoms of aspiration can vary depending on the location, area and amount of blockage, and object size and shape. Because of the difficult airway anatomy of children, a multidisciplinary approach - including otolaryngology, pulmonology, anesthesia, and general surgery - for the removal of airway FBs is necessary and prudent to avoid more invasive surgical involvement. This report discusses a nine-year-old male who aspirated two ball magnets, which became lodged in his tracheobronchial tree and required a multidisciplinary approach for removal.
