Incidence of accidental events during anesthesia from 2012 to 2016: survey on anesthesia-related events by the Japanese Society of Anesthesiologists.
Article in Journal of anesthesia, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
purposeThe Japanese Society of Anesthesiologists (JSA) has conducted surveys on life-threatening accidental events during anesthesia and reported results since 1992. This report describes the incidence of these life-threatening accidental events in the survey period between 2012 and 2016.
methodsJSA conducts an annual survey on accidental events. Each participating facility reports life-threatening accidental events that occurred each year. Facilities accredited by the JSA can electronically report events using the JSA Perioperative Information Management System (JSA-PIMS) software program that interfaces with the electronic anesthesia record system.
resultsThe number of cardiac arrest events per 10,000 anesthesia cases gradually decreased from 2.97 in 2012 to 2.30 in 2016 (odds ratio OR 0.77 95% CI 0.68-0.88). The number of severe hypotension events per 10,000 anesthesia cases gradually decreased from 4.63 in 2012 to 4.24 in 2016 (OR 0.92, 95% CI 0.83-1.01). The number of severe hypoxia events per 10,000 anesthesia cases gradually decreased from 2.01 in 2012 to 1.59 in 2016 (OR 0.79, 95% CI 0.68-0.92). The number of life-threatening arrhythmia events per 10,000 anesthesia cases was 1.14 in 2012. Thereafter, it tended to decrease slightly to 0.88 in 2016 (OR 0.77, 95% CI 0.63-0.95).
conclusionThe incidence of cardiac arrest during this period was 2.63/10,000, which was lower the incidence reported in other countries. While no change was observed in the incidence of severe hypotension over the survey period, the incidence of severe hypoxia and life-threatening arrhythmia decreased by 20-25% during those 5 years.
