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

Foreign body aspiration in children represents an acute pediatric emergency, requiring immediate interdisciplinary evaluation and intervention. Infants and toddlers under the age of four are particularly at risk due to immature coordination of the swallowing mechanism and a tendency toward oral exploration. Clinical symptoms vary depending on the location of the foreign body and can range from mild coughing to severe respiratory distress. Anamnesis is often unreliable, making diagnosis and therapeutic decision-making more difficult. Bronchoscopy remains the gold standard for both diagnosis and treatment, even in cases with inconspicuous imaging findings. The urgency of endoscopic removal must be assessed on a case-by-case basis, depending on the patient's clinical condition, the type of foreign body, and potential risks such as airway obstruction or ingestion of batteries or magnets.
