Airway and Endotracheal Tubes: Role of POCUS.
Review in Indian journal of pediatrics, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Airway ultrasound forms an integral part of the Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS), providing valuable real-time information that supports airway evaluation and management in critically ill patients. POCUS of the airway helps in the airway assessment for difficult laryngoscopy and intubation, confirmation of endotracheal tube (ETT) position, determination of ETT size especially in paediatric patients, identification of the cricothyroid membrane for cricothyrotomy, prediction of postextubation stridor and guidance during percutaneous dilatational tracheostomy. Despite its undeniable utility, airway POCUS has a considerable learning curve and requires structured training and practice. The integration of airway POCUS protocols into the bedside examination of critically ill patients will help to optimise patient safety and outcomes.
