Efficacy and safety of remifentanil for analgesia in cesarean delivery.
Trial report in Medicine, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundThis study aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of remifentanil as a general anesthetic during cesarean delivery. MATERIAL AND
methodsFifty women with singleton pregnancies undergoing cesarean delivery were randomly divided into intervention and control groups, each group containing 25 subjects. Participants in the intervention group received remifentanil (infused at 2 μg/kg/h), whereas subjects in the control group were given dexmedetomidine (infused at 0.4 μg/kg/h). Outcome measurements included mean arterial blood pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), bispectral index (BIS), Apgar scores at 1 and 5 minutes, and the pH, PCO2, PO2, and base excess (BE) of umbilical venous and arterial blood.
resultsForty-four participants completed the study. Patients in the intervention group did not experience greater effect and safety than those in the control group (P > .05), although MAP and BIS values decreased significantly immediately before laryngoscopy (P < .05). In addition, BIS values were reduced significantly at the time of skin incision, at uterine incision, and immediately after fetal delivery when compared with baseline values in both groups (P < .01).
conclusionThis study concluded that remifentanil and dexmedetomidine exhibited similar efficacy and safety during general anesthesia for cesarean delivery.
