Effects of bronchial blockers on gas exchange in infants with one-lung ventilation: a single-institutional experience of 22 cases.
Article in Translational pediatrics, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
backgroundOne-lung ventilation (OLV) in infants is a commonly used airway technique during thoracic surgery. Current research has primarily focused on the operation of the airways and the occurrence of complications. However, there has been minimal data on the pulmonary gas exchange in infants before and after OLV. This study aimed to assess the efficacy of bronchial blockers (BBs) on the pulmonary gas exchange in infants with OLV.
methodsA total of 22 infants requiring OLV from January 2017 to August 2019 were included in this study. OLV was achieved by placing BBs outside the endotracheal tube, and all surgeries were performed by the same experienced anesthesiologist. Numerous clinical features, including the oxygenation index (OI), alveolar-arterial oxygen tension gradient (P
resultsFor all patients, the pulmonary gas exchange during OLV was significantly different from both pre-OLV and post-OLV. However, no significant changes of pulmonary function were observed before and after OLV. Extended OLV time was associated with decreased OI and Cdyn, and increased P
conclusionsIn this study, the efficacy of BBs on the pulmonary gas exchange in infants with OLV was assessed. The results suggested that although each parameter of pulmonary function pre-OLV were similar to those of post-OLV, an extended period of OLV may lead to compromised lung function.
