Effect of Different Concentrations of Esmolol on Perioperative Hemodynamics and Analgesia in Patients Undergoing Colectomy: A Prospective, Randomized Controlled Study.
Trial report in Drug design, development and therapy, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
purposeThe aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of esmolol on intraoperative hemodynamic and perioperative analgesic management.
methodsTotally, 125 patients undergoing colectomy were randomly divided into three groups. Group S (saline group) was administered 0.75 mL/kg/h of normal saline for 5 min before anesthesia induction and maintenance of 0.25 mL/kg/h; Group E
resultsGroup E
conclusionEsmolol 0.5 mg/kg and 1.0 mg/kg infusion before intubation both can effectively inhibit the intubation response, while only maintenance with 2.0 mg/kg/h of esmolol can reduce the incidence of extubation response. At the same time, esmolol can decrease intraoperative opioid requirement without increasing the risk of adverse reactions.
