The Pediatric Vocal Mechanism: Structure and Function.
Review in Journal of voice : official journal of the Voice Foundation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
The pediatric vocal mechanism is dynamic and complex. Effective treatment of voice disorders in children requires accurate knowledge of typical laryngeal structure and function. This is particularly crucial given that the pediatric vocal mechanism differs in structure and function from that found in adults. Yet, it can be difficult to find data specific to pediatric voices. This article describes three aspects of vocal function across childhood: 1) laryngeal anatomical structure, 2) quantitative voice measures across childhood, and 3) voice disorder risk across childhood. The influence of dysphonia on quality of life across childhood is also considered. The goal of this review is to enhance the diagnosis of pediatric voice disorders as well as to highlight areas for future inquiry.
