"The magnitude and associated factors of intraoperative shivering after cesarean section delivery under Spinal anesthesia'': A cross sectional study.
Article in Annals of medicine and surgery (2012), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
backgroundShivering is an involuntary, spontaneous, and repetitive contraction of the skeletal muscle and increases patients' discomfort, oxygen-consuming, wound infection; increased surgical bleeding, and morbid cardiac events. The aim of this study was to determine the magnitude and associated factors of intraoperative shivering after cesarean section delivery. METHODOLOGY: An institution-based cross-sectional study was conducted. A total of 326 willing patients were included in the study after obtaining ethical consent and we have used consecutive sampling techniques. Axillary temperature was recorded preoperatively and in the intra-operative period every 5 min. Descriptive statistics, cross-tabs, and binary logistic regression analysis were performed to identify the association shivering and independent variables. The strength of the association was presented using an adjusted odds ratio with a 95% confidence interval and a p-value<0.05 was considered as statistically significant.
resultsThe overall incidence of intraoperative shivering after cesarean section delivery under spinal anesthesia was 51.8% (95% CI: 46.3, 57.1). The majority of the patients who developed shivering were after 20 min of spinal anesthesia. In this study body temperature, mean arterial pressure of the patient, and duration of surgery were significantly associated with shivering.
conclusionIn this study duration of surgery, hypothermia and hypotension were the independent associated risk factors for intraoperative shivering.
