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

Objective: To review swallowing outcomes after pediatric laryngotracheal reconstruction. Methods: A scoping review was conducted through PubMed and Google Scholar databases for dysphagia outcomes after common pediatric airway surgery. Original full-text articles written in English between 1987 and 2024 were included. Articles were excluded if data was unavailable to review or were not in English. Preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses (PRISMA) Guidelines were followed. Results: There were 31 articles included, which assessed swallowing after laryngotracheal reconstruction. Laryngotracheal reconstruction can result in transient post-operative dysphagia, with the degree of severity related to preoperative swallowing status. Conclusion: Most airway reconstructive surgery in children can be associated with postoperative dysphagia. However, the swallow dysfunction is typically transient and can be predicted by comorbidities or preoperative swallow function. Timely assessments and appropriate multidisciplinary interventions are essential to improve swallowing outcomes after pediatric laryngotracheal reconstruction. Level of Evidence: 4.
