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
backgroundShivering is a common problem in patients undergoing surgery under spinal anesthesia.
aimsThe aim of this study was to compare efficacy and safety of clonidine versus tramadol in postspinal anesthesia shivering. SETTINGS AND
designThis prospective, randomized, double-blind controlled clinical trial was conducted in a tertiary care setting. MATERIALS AND
methodsA total of 60 American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Class l and II adult patients (age 18-65 years) undergoing surgery under spinal anesthesia and developed shivering received either clonidine 1 μg/kg or tramadol 1 mg/kg intravenously. The time required for cessation of shivering, control and recurrence rate of shivering, effect on hemodynamics and side effects were compared between two groups. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS: Unpaired
resultsTime for cessation of shivering was less in clonidine group than tramadol group (02.51 vs. 04.82 min;
conclusionClonidine provides early relief from shivering than tramadol with fewer side effects in patients undergoing surgery under spinal anesthesia.
