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

abstractMorquio syndrome is a lysosomal storage disease that can lead to glycosaminoglycan deposition in the tissues. Skeletal deformities, cardiovascular complications, and airway abnormalities are well-recognized in this condition, specifically owing to thickened mucosa and epiglottis, making fiberoptic-guided intubation less successful. Our patient had severe aortic regurgitation and was posted for aortic valve replacement. Anesthetic challenges encountered during the management of the case, and a different approach to airway management are highlighted in this report. With increased survival of patients affected with Morquio syndrome, cardiac anesthesiologists might see an increasing number of similar patients requiring corrective cardiac surgery.
