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

Cardiac events sometimes occur during anesthesia and surgery and may be severe or even life-threatening. This report describes a case of severe bradyarrhythmia during anesthetic induction with propofol, midazolam, sufentanil, and vecuronium. The patient took nifedipine sustained-release tablets on the morning of surgery as routine treatment for hypertension, and this medication may have contributed to the bradyarrhythmia. Nifedipine is a calcium channel blocker that can dilate blood vessels, depress the activity of the sinoatrial node, and delay the conduction of the atrioventricular node. Although these effects are not usually significant, they may be enhanced by anesthetics or other concomitant drugs. For patients of advanced age, especially those with autonomic disturbance or cardiac abnormalities, these effects can be remarkable, and discontinuation of nifedipine should be considered.
