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

Hiatal hernias are common in the elderly and in most cases asymptomatic and no intervention is needed. Hiatal hernias can range from asymptomatic to an intrathoracic stomach, a rare but potentially life-threatening condition, characterized by the migration of the stomach into the thoracic cavity. Its need for urgent intervention presents a major concern for the anesthesiologist because it is associated with a high risk of aspiration. This case report discusses the clinical presentation and anesthetic management of an intrathoracic full stomach proposed for urgent surgery. By presenting this case, we hope to enhance the understanding of preoperative management in patients with intrathoracic full stomach and the role of awake fiberoptic guided intubation as a valuable technique in emergency surgical settings. This case reinforces the importance of existing healthcare professionals with practice in managing similar clinical scenarios effectively.
