Y Reverse: Modified technique in challenging airway management.
Article in Thoracic cancer, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
introductionSelf-expanding Y-metal stents (SEMS) are best suited lesions with involvement of the carina and proximal main bronchi; however, Y-stents can be difficult to place. These difficulties guided us to develop a modification of the classic technique that addresses some of the challenges during positioning. We present the Y reverse technique for Y stent insertion using a combination of rigid and flexible bronchoscopy. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis retrospective study included 15 consecutive patients, suffering from tracheal-carina-lower main bronchi complex, hospitalized at the Thoracic Surgery Unit of the Vanvitelli University of Naples between October 2021 and October 2023. INCLUSION CRITERIA: patients in which the length of the stenosis of the right bronchi was greater than that of the left bronchi, advanced oncological conditions, severe respiratory failure; exclusion criteria: Karnofsky scale with <40 points. All patients were admitted to the hospital and treated with Y-stent insertion using the modified technique Y reverse.
resultsThe comparison between the group undergoing the Y reverse technique with the group undergoing the traditional positioning of the Y prosthesis has shown an improvement in respiratory function; prolongation of the mean survival time; improvement in SpO
conclusionY Reverse is a safe and effective procedure that provides rapid symptom relief in individuals who have critical central airway obstruction near the distal portion of the trachea, carina, and main right and left bronchi.
