Surgical management of the airway in Jarcho-Levin syndrome: a case series.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 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
Jarcho-Levin syndrome (JLS) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by vertebral and rib malformations, with respiratory complications being a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Tracheostomy in patients with JLS can be technically challenging due to underlying anatomical abnormalities. We report two cases of JLS in which tracheostomy tube placement was required. In both cases, anatomical deformities presented significant technical challenges during the procedure. Based on our limited experience, we recommend specific surgical considerations for performing tracheostomy in patients with JLS. Furthermore, early tracheostomy should be considered in patients with JLS prior to the development of recurrent pneumonia and pulmonary hypertension. Currently, no standardized guidelines exist regarding the optimal timing of tracheostomy in JLS.
