The role of ramosetron in the prevention of post-spinal shivering in obstetric patients. A prospective randomized double blind study.
Article in Romanian journal of anaesthesia and intensive care, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04654429 (Does Higher Operation Theatre Ambient Temperature and Intravenous Ondansetron Prophylaxis Reduce Incidence of Post-spinal Shivering in Obstetric Population? A Double-blind, Randomised, Factorial Study.), which is not on this map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND
aimIntra/post-operative shivering is frequently observed in parturients posted for elective cesarean delivery (C/D) under spinal anaesthesia. Several studies have advocated the anti-shivering effect of 5-HT
methodThe study comprised 80 parturients of the American Society of Anaesthesiologists (ASA) physical status I/II, posted for elective C/D under spinal anaesthesia who were randomly divided into 2 equal groups; Group N: 0.9% normal saline (4 ml) immediately before induction of spinal anaesthesia and Group R: ramosetron (0.3 mg) intravenously diluted to 4 ml volume. Shivering at any time on a (0-4) scale and total dose of tramadol required for its treatment was recorded. The study also includes the recording of haemodynamic parameters and the incidence of early onset nausea and vomiting.
resultsStatistically significant data was obtained while comparing incidence of shivering and maximum shivering at any time (P = 0.001). A lower incidence of early onset nausea and decreased total dose of tramadol was also observed in the ramosetron group.
conclusionRamosetron (0.3 mg) is advocated to be an effective drug in preventing post-spinal shivering among parturients posted for elective C/D. Moreover, its role in preventing maternal nausea together with better haemodynamic parameters further supported the advantageous role of ramosetron in our group of patients.
