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

Tracheal leiomyomas are extremely rare benign tumors that are most commonly treated by bronchoscopic or surgical resection. Procedure-related complication rates are low, with surgical tracheal resection carrying the highest risk. Nonetheless, related airway obstruction is a potentially devastating complication. As proficiency develops, more centers are utilizing extracorporeal membranous oxygenation (ECMO) not just for critically ill patients but also for high-risk airway therapeutic procedures. However, ECMO carries its own potential complications, and the decision to cannulate requires multidisciplinary discussions. We present a case of a high-risk tracheal leiomyoma that was successfully resected bronchoscopically with ECMO on standby.
