Button Battery Ingestion: Exploring Socioeconomic Risk Factors.
Article in Otolaryngology--head and neck surgery : official journal of American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 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
objectiveExamine the demographic and social determinants of health linked to pediatric esophageal foreign body removals, with an emphasis on button battery ingestions. STUDY
designA retrospective chart review was performed on pediatric patients who underwent operative removal of a foreign body from the esophagus (Current Procedural Terminologies [CPTs] 43215, 43194).
settingThe study was conducted across four hospitals from November 2010 to December 2023.
methodsData on patient demographics and social determinants of health were analyzed. Exclusions included nonaccidental ingestions, patients older than 18 years, and cases with missing social determinants of health data. The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) database was used to link patient data to socioeconomic indicators.
resultsOf 825 cases, 50 were button battery ingestions. Age was comparable between button battery and nonbutton battery patients. Button battery patients were predominantly male. Socioeconomic analysis revealed that button battery patients were from households with higher median incomes, lower poverty rates, higher home values, and greater internet access. The incidence of button battery ingestion increased over the study period.
conclusionThis study highlights significant demographic and socioeconomic differences in pediatric foreign body ingestions compared to button battery ingestions. Male gender and higher socioeconomic status were notable risk factors for button battery ingestion. These findings support the need for educational and preventive strategies to address the risks associated with button battery ingestion.
