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

backgroundTracheal extubation is the process of removing a tube from the trachea. It is associated with an increase in heart rate, blood pressure, intracranial pressure, intraocular pressure, coughing, bronchospasm, laryngospasm, and bleeding. Many techniques, as well as drugs, have been attempted for attenuation of the airway and cardiovascular responses. Propofol and lidocaine are widely available drugs in resource-limited settings even though their relative effectiveness for smooth extubation is not well established.

objectivesTo assess the effectiveness of intravenous lidocaine and propofol on the attenuation of extubation-induced hemodynamic responses in the adult elective surgical patient from November 01, 2019, to February 30, 2020, at Asella teaching and referral hospital, Ethiopia.

methodsInstitutional-based prospective observational cohort study design was conducted on 72 ASA I patients who underwent elective surgery. The study participants were allocated into three groups equally based on anesthetists' extubation plan; Group P, 0.5 mg/kg propofol, group L, 1.5 mg/kg lidocaine administered 2 min before extubation and group C was a control group. Data were analyzed by SPSS version 20 after the normality of the data was checked by the Shapiro Wilk test. One-way ANOVA followed by a Tukey posthoc test has been employed to find the pair-wise significance and a p-value of <0.05 was considered as statistically significant.

resultsA demographic status and clinical characteristics of the patient were comparable between groups with p-values of >0.05. After extubation; heart rate, systolic, diastolic, and mean arterial blood pressure were decreased significantly in groups of propofol and lidocaine within 10 min. Propofol shows better results in maintaining stable systolic blood pressure up to 3 min, while heart rate, diastolic, and mean arterial pressure were maintained stable up to 5 min after extubation (p = 0.001).

conclusions0.5 mg/kg propofol or 1.5 mg/kg lidocaine might help to attenuate extubation induced hemodynamic responses.
