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

Background: Patients with airway pathologies are at higher risk for difficult intubation, making Awake flexible bronchoscopy intubation (AFBI) an essential technique. This study aimed to describe the baseline characteristics, procedural details, and outcomes of AFBI regarding otorhinolaryngology surgery. Methods: This single-centre, observational study included 147 adult patients who underwent a standardised AFBI protocol for otorhinolaryngology surgery patients at Eye & ENT Hospital of Fudan University between January 1, 2022 and July 31, 2023. Data were collected from procedural video recordings and clinical database. Baseline characteristics, oxygenation methods, topicalisation, sedation levels, and procedural outcomes were documented. Comparisons between the first-attempt success group and the multiple-attempts success group were further performed. Results: The median age of the patients was 66.00 years (IQR: 59.00-70.00), and 85.03% were male. The median body mass index (BMI) was 22.20 kg.m Conclusion: This study highlights the high first-attempt success rate of the optimized AFBI protocol. Tailored airway management strategies are essential, particularly for older patients, to ensure safety and procedural outcomes.
