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

objectiveAnalogosedation and local anesthesia, including regional nerve blocks are used for endoscopic diagnostic or radiological and ultrasound-guided procedures in which the patient should not move or has to be free of pain. We retrospectively analyzed patient satisfaction, complications and the risk of urological interventions with analgosedation and/or local anesthesia between 2008 and 2012. MATERIAL AND

methodsIn total 21,690 urological patients underwent surgical treatment at the Department of Urology of the University Hospital of Essen between 2008 and 2012 and 3,327 of these cases were performed by urologists with the patient under analogosedation (n=1484) and local anesthesia (n=1843). In total 13 surgical and endoscopic procedures were separately analyzed and evaluated for safety and practicability.

resultsIn five cases (0.15%) the procedures with analgosedation or local anesthesia were interrupted because of agitation (n=3) and in one case the transurethal resection was stopped due to a large bladder tumor. One patient suffered anaphylactic shock after preoperative intravenous application of cefuroxim 1.5 g. After cardiopulmonary resuscitation and a short stay on the intensive care unit the patient was discharged after 2 days.Conclusions. Local anesthesia and analgosedation should be performed by urologists for minor surgery, endoscopic procedures and radiological or ultrasound-guided treatment. For safety reasons there should always be a second medical doctor present for assistance. Analgesia with deep sedation or loss of defensive reflexes should be administered by anesthesiologists.
