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

Although intraoperative tachyarrhythmias are relatively common, their appropriate management is pertinent to reducing morbidity and mortality. In certain clinical scenarios, the initial steps of managing intraoperative tachyarrhythmias may be ambiguous. Emergency manuals (EMs) are cognitive aids that improve the outcome of critical events by providing current, medically established guidelines on management. The case of a patient with an intraoperative supraventricular tachycardia with narrow, irregular QRS complexes and refractory hypotension is described here. Relevant sections of Stanford Anesthesia Emergency Manual were activated immediately and guided the anesthesiologists in treating the patient's arrhythmia. The utilization of an EM allowed rapid selection of a pharmacologic agent that achieved hemodynamic stability. EMs allow healthcare providers to respond more appropriately and efficiently during critical events and thus directly improve patient care.
