Mean Temperature Loss During General Anesthesia for Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy: Comparison of Males and Females.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Introduction Mild hypothermia is common after general anesthesia. It is associated with discomfort and shivering. Greater fall of temperature is associated with more devastating complications. Data regarding the effect of gender on perioperative hypothermia is scanty. Objectives of the study To determine and compare mean core temperature loss in males and females undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anesthesia. Setting and design Descriptive cross-sectional study in a tertiary care teaching hospital. Subjects and methods Ninety-seven elective laparoscopy patients were included through non-probability consecutive sampling. Intraoperatively, there was standardization of monitoring equipment, drapes, operation room temperature (21-22 °C), humidity (50%), irrigation fluid temperature (37 °C), peritoneal CO
