Case Report: Laryngeal web in a Yorkshire Terrier.
Article in Frontiers in veterinary science, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 laryngeal web is a congenital or acquired, abnormal transverse membrane, most commonly between the free edges of the vocal cords. Ensuing glottic stenosis may be asymptomatic or, in some cases, can lead to vocal and respiratory signs, such as dysphonia, stridor, and dyspnoea. Here, we describe a rare case of a laryngeal web in a Yorkshire Terrier presented with atypical clinical signs, including dysphonia, flatulence, and halitosis. Following a reasonable exclusion of an initial concern of laryngeal neoplasia and given the diagnosis of a congenital laryngeal web, the owners elected not to pursue surgical treatment. The dog's clinical signs remained unchanged with no development of new respiratory signs for over 4 years post-diagnosis. The findings presented herein highlight the importance of considering the laryngeal web as a rare but possible differential diagnosis for dysphonia and emphasise the need to establish specific individual selection criteria for surgical and medical treatments for dogs affected with this laryngeal anomaly.
