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 evaluate the prognostic value of hyoid bone kinematic parameters measured via submental B/M-mode ultrasonography in post-stroke pharyngeal dysphagia, aiming to identify reliable predictors of swallowing recovery. Methods: This study included 46 stroke patients with pharyngeal dysphagia, diagnosed via videofluoroscopic swallowing study (VFSS), and treated at the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, Affiliated Brain Hospital of Nanjing Medical University (June 2020-August 2024). Swallowing function was assessed using seven pharyngeal phase parameters from the Videofluoroscopic Dysphagia Scale (VDS) at baseline and post-rehabilitation. Patients were stratified into favorable ( Result: No significant differences were observed between groups in baseline characteristics. Post-treatment, the favorable group showed significantly lower Rosenbek scores Conclusion: Impaired hyoid anterior displacement and reduced ASR are critical pathophysiological mechanisms in post-stroke dysphagia. Combined assessment of these parameters provides significant clinical utility for prognosis and treatment planning.
