Effects of intravenous lidocaine prior to intubation on postoperative airway symptoms.
Article in Journal of anesthesia, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
We investigated whether intravenous lidocaine prior to endotracheal intubation influences the postoperative airway symptoms of sore throat, cough, and sputum. After ethics committee approval, 80 patients undergoing elective operations were studied. A total of 20 patients were given lidocaine 1.0 mg.kg(-1) (group L1), 20 patients were given lidocaine 1.5 mg.kg(-1) (group L2), and 40 patients received normal saline (group C). The sore throat incidence was 20% in group L1, 0 in group L2, and 40% in group C. Cough incidence was 0 in group L1, 20% in group L2, and 40% in group C. Sputum incidence was 35% in group L1, 25% in group L2, and 47.5% in group C. There were significant differences in the incidences (P < 0.01) and severity (P < 0.01) of sore throat and cough in groups C and L (groups L1 + L2). There were no significant differences between groups in terms of the incidence or severity of sputum. In conclusion, intravenous lidocaine prior to endotracheal intubation decreased the incidence of postoperative sore throat and cough.
