An update on pharyngeal assessment by the modified barium swallow.
Review in Abdominal radiology (New York), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The modified barium swallow study (MBSS) is a diagnostic examination that visualizes the functional anatomy and physiology of the oral pharyngeal swallowing mechanism in real time. The MBSS, a videofluoroscopic imaging method, is indicated for patients with known or suspected oropharyngeal dysphagia and ideally involves the combined expertise of a radiologist and speech pathologist. The MBSS provides critical diagnostic insights that help in identifying and assessing the type and severity of physiological swallowing impairments, evaluating the safety of oral intake, testing the effectiveness of evidence-based interventions, and developing treatment plans. This manuscript aims to present an overview of MBSS standards from an interdisciplinary perspective, emphasizes key areas of best practices, and reviews the common morphologic abnormalities seen on MBSS exams.
