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

purposeThe Dynamic Imaging Grade of Swallowing Toxicity (Version 2; DIGEST

methodThis study represents a secondary analysis of VF examinations from a prospective longitudinal study conducted in 109 pALS. VF evaluations contained 10 barium trials spanning three International Dysphagia Diet Standardisation Initiative (IDDSI) levels (0-7). Duplicate, independent, and blinded ratings were completed. DIGEST

resultsA total of 373 VF examinations were included in this analysis. DIGEST

conclusionsStandard inclusion of moderately thick liquid bolus trials did not significantly impact DIGEST SUPPLEMENTAL MATERIAL: https://doi.org/10.23641/asha.32348451.
