Comparative Evaluation of Sevoflurane, Propofol, and Combination of Sevoflurane and Propofol on Insertion Characteristics of Reusable Classic Laryngeal Mask Airway.

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
BACKGROUND AND
aimAdequate depth of anaesthesia is needed for successful placement LMA. under lighter plane of anaesthesia inadequate mouth opening,coughing,body movements can lead to rejection of LMA and may be associated with breath holding and bronchospasm. Use of propofol in doses which allow adequqate jaw relaxation and prevent patient reaction to LMA commonly results in hypotension and prolonged apnoea. Apart from minimal respiratory irritant properties sevoflurane as compared to propofol has the advantage of providing better hemodynamic stability and a smoother transition to the maintainance phase without a period of apnea. However sevoflurane is associated with delayed jaw relaxation and a longer time for the insertion of the LMA.Our hypothesis is that induction of anaesthesia with the combination of sevoflurane and small dose of propofol may optimize the insertion conditions of LMA and decrease the side effects of individual drugs.
methods90 patients aged 18-65 yrs ASA physical status I and II undergoing elective procedures were randomly allocated into 3 groups of 30 patients each. No patient had been given any premedication. Patients in group
resultsour results showed that induction of anesthesia using the combination of sevoflurane and propofol resulted in the most frequent successful LMA insertion at first attempt as compared with induction of anesthesia with either sevoflurane or propofol alone.
