Influence of different menstrual phases on the Bispectral Index during dexmedetomidine sedation.
Trial report in The Kaohsiung journal of medical sciences, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
To investigate the influence of different menstrual phases on the Bispectral Index (BIS) during dexmedetomidine (Dex) sedation, 40 patients with regular menstrual cycle, American Society of Anesthesiologists I-II, aged 18-40 years, undergoing selective gynecologic laparoscopic surgery, were enrolled. According to different menstrual phases and the serum progesterone concentration, they were divided into two groups: the follicular phase group (Group F) and the luteal phase group (Group L), and each group had 20 patients. Before anesthesia induction, patients were infused with an initial loading dose of Dex (1 μg/kg) for 10 minutes and then 0.5 μg/kg/h for 20 minutes. BIS and the changes in hemodynamic and respiratory parameters were recorded within those 30 minutes. Time to lower BIS to 70 and 60 in Group L was shorter than that in Group F (9.4 ± 1.3 minutes vs. 11.3 ± 2.1 minutes, p = 0.005; 11.3 ± 2.4 minutes vs. 14.0 ± 3.6 minutes, p = 0.021). The number of patients whose BIS reached 50 in Group L was greater than that in Group F (15 vs. 8, p < 0.05). The lowest BIS value in the Group L was lower than that in Group F (46.8 ± 6.3 vs. 55.3 ± 5.5, p = 0.006), and the heart rate of patients in both groups showed a decrease (p < 0.05). The sedative effect of Dex was more significant in patients during the luteal phase than during the follicular phase.
