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

purposeWe compared the reversal doses of sugammadex in surgical cases in which intraoperative neuromuscular monitor were used, to cases in which intraoperative neuromuscular monitoring was not used, retrospectively.

methodsData were collected by reviewing the electronic medical records of patients who received rocuronium and sugammadex during general anesthesia at Asahikawa Medical University Hospital between May 1, 2017 and April 30, 2018. The primary outcome was the reversal dose of sugammadex per patient actual body weight (mg/kg) between the group in which intraoperative neuromuscular monitoring was used (NM+ group) and the group in which intraoperative neuromuscular monitoring was not used (NM- group).

resultsA total of 3496 patients were evaluated, with 2544 patients (73%) included in NM+ group and 952 patients (27%) in NM- group. The reversal doses of sugammadex per actual body weight were significantly higher in NM- group compared to NM+ group. In the NM+ group, 521 patients (20%) received < 2 mg/kg sugammadex, 1377 patients (54%) received 2 ~ 2.5 mg/kg sugammadex, and 646 patients (25%) received > 2.5 mg/kg sugammadex. In contrast, 128 patients (13%) received < 2 mg/kg sugammadex, 362 patients (38%) received 2 ~ 2.5 mg/kg sugammadex and 462 patients (49%) received > 2.5 mg/kg sugammadex in NM- group.

conclusionThis single-center retrospective study demonstrated that the use of intraoperative neuromuscular monitor reduced the reversal dose of sugammadex.
