1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a rare pharmacogenic disorder of skeletal muscle calcium regulation, resulting from general anesthesia that can be fatal. Most cases are caused by administration of volatile anesthetics or depolarizing muscle relaxants. It has been generally reported that both of sevoflurane and succinylcholine can induce the delayed onset of MH. Here, we report a case of malignant hyperthermia in a four-year-old girl during anesthesia induction for unilateral congenital ptosis surgery, two minutes after sevoflurane and succinylcholine administration. The crisis was atypical but early recognized and managed by administration of dantrolene with symptomatic treatment.
