Factors That Limit Evaluation of Velopharyngeal Closure During Nasopharyngoscopy.
Observational study in The Cleft palate-craniofacial journal : official publication of the American Cleft Palate-Craniofacial Association, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
ObjectiveTo assess the quality of nasopharyngoscopy video recordings used for velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI) surgical planning and identify factors that limit evaluation of velopharyngeal closure.DesignProspective observational study.SettingMetropolitan-based hospitals with craniofacial clinics in the United States and Canada.ParticipantsOne-hundred and forty-two (142) patients with VPI across 10 hospitals.Assessment(s)Nasopharyngoscopy video recordings used for VPI surgical planning .Main Outcome Measure(s)Ratability of nasopharyngoscopy video recordings, with "ratable" defined as the video (1) visualized the velum, lateral pharyngeal wall, and posterior pharyngeal walls at some point during speech production and (2) contained an oral speech sample at the phrase level or above.ResultsOne-hundred and forty-two (142) nasopharyngoscopy video recordings were obtained from patients undergoing VPI evaluation, of which 59.9% (n=85) were ratable. A multilevel logistic regression model was used to identify factors that influenced the quality of nasopharyngoscopy video recordings. Factors associated with unratable nasopharyngoscopy videos were age (
