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

A gentleman in his 70s with previously treated oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma presented acutely with worsening stridor. Flexible laryngoscopy on initial assessment demonstrated bilateral vocal cord palsy, and he was subsequently resuscitated with high-flow oxygen and nebulised adrenaline. On his third day of admission, antero-lateral T-wave inversions were incidentally found on a pre-operative electrocardiogram, and a transthoracic echocardiogram showed mid-apical akinesia. After a negative inpatient coronary angiogram, he was diagnosed with Takotsubo cardiomyopathy attributed to nebulised adrenaline therapy. This case report is the first to our knowledge to report an instance of this in a patient with acute airway obstruction caused by bilateral vocal cord palsy and no prior cardiac history.
