Post-tracheostomy With Long-Standing Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) Ankylosis Using a Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) Scan for Airway Assessment: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2026. 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
Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans offer a static picture of airway anatomy and help diagnose anatomical or pathological anomalies. Patients with post-tracheostomy status have a high probability of tracheal stenosis. The airway must be thoroughly examined before induction. Three-dimensional visualization using CBCT allows the anesthesiologist to make informed decisions regarding the intubation approach and appropriate endotracheal (ET) tube size, thereby reducing the risk of perioperative complications. In this case report, we discuss the role of 3D imaging in assessing the probability of tracheal stenosis in a 56-year-old patient with a 40-year history of long-standing temporomandibular joint (TMJ) ankylosis.
