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

Symptomatic cocaine intoxication in the preoperative period is a potentially life-threatening condition, especially before emergent surgery. The anesthesiologist is faced with a dilemma where the patient is deemed unsafe for induction of general anesthesia but also in need of immediate surgical intervention. Cocaine is a local anesthetic and, as such, has been proposed to respond to lipid emulsion treatment as other local anesthetics would. We present a case supporting this statement and review the relevant published literature on the topic.
