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

We aimed to investigate the incidence of sugammadex-induced anaphylaxis in a large Korean population. We retrospectively investigated the incidence of sugammadex-induced anaphylaxis between 2013 and 2019 from the database of the Korea Institute of Drug Safety-Risk Management-Korea Adverse Event Reporting System (KIDS-KAERS). We estimated the incidence of sugammadex-induced anaphylaxis from the KIDS-KAERS database, assuming that the reporting efficiency was 10%, 50%, and 100%, respectively. We also investigated its annual sales volume in Korea and assumed that the exposure to sugammadex was 95% of the estimated sales volume. During the study period, 1,401,630 sugammadex vials were sold, and 19 cases of sugammadex-induced anaphylaxis were identified in the KIDS-KAERS database. The estimated incidence of sugammadex-induced anaphylaxis was 0.0143%, 0.00279%, and 0.0014%, assuming a reporting efficiency of 10%, 50%, and 100%, respectively. All patients, except for one with a missing record, fully recovered after anaphylaxis. The incidence of sugammadex-induced anaphylaxis identified in the national pharmacovigilance database was lower than previously reported rates in other countries. Therefore, its use in general anesthesia should not be hindered by concerns about the resulting risk of anaphylaxis in Korea.
