Comparison of the effects of different positive end-expiratory pressure levels on respiratory mechanics and oxygenation in laparoscopic surgery: A protocol for systematic review and network meta-analyses.
Article in Medicine, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundSeveral studies have observed the good effects of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) application in laparoscopic surgeries, such as counteracted intraoperative atelectasis, improved respiratory mechanics, and gas exchange. However, evidence of systematic comparisons of different PEEP levels is short, and the optimal level of PEEP during laparoscopy remains unknown and controversial. The study aims to compare the effects of different PEEP levels on respiratory mechanics and oxygenation in laparoscopic surgery using network meta-analyses.
methodsTo identify relevant studies, a systematic search will be conducted among electronic databases, including PubMed, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, and Web of Science. We will include randomized controlled trials (RCTs). The risk of bias in the included RCTs will be assessed using the Cochrane bias risk tool. Network meta-analysis will be performed using STATA 15.0, and R 3.4.1 software.
resultsThis study is ongoing and the results will be published in a peer-reviewed journal.
conclusionThe results of this study will be sent to clinicians and healthcare providers in the National Health Service, which is expected to help clinicians make more informed treatment decisions and facilitate further research on the use of PEEP during surgery.
