[Pediatric anesthesia for proton radiotherapy : medicine remote from the medical centre].
Review in Der Anaesthesist, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Anesthesia care for infants and young children for proton beam radiotherapy demands great technical and vocational skills from the anesthesia team and also a high degree of competence in soft skills. The anesthesia team should be experienced and regularly trained in pediatric anesthesia, especially as the children are often in a reduced general condition. The infrastructure should be established according to the current standards in anesthesiology. Monitoring of vital data, thorax excursions and inadvertent movements of the remotely positioned and sedated patient need to be under constant technical and optical surveillance. Propofol is an ideal hypnotic for the sedation of children under spontaneous breathing for proton beam radiation therapy. It is well tolerated even when given on a daily basis over several weeks. A close cooperation between the pediatric oncologist, radiation oncologist and anesthetist is important in order to manage additional medical problems in an optimal way. The special needs of oncology patients must be taken into consideration when planning anesthesia care.
