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

objectiveTo assess the influence of general anesthesia on rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM) and standard coagulation testing in healthy dogs. STUDY

designProspective experimental study. ANIMALS: 10 healthy Beagle dogs.

methodsDogs were administered methadone (0.2 mg/kg) intramuscularly. Anesthesia was co-induced intravenously 30 min later with midazolam (0.1 mg/kg) and propofol to effect, and maintained with sevoflurane. Crystalloids were administered at 5 ml/kg/h. Blood was sampled by direct venipuncture before induction (T0) and 3.5 h later (T3.5) and ROTEM parameters (ExTEM, InTEM, FibTEM, ApTEM), standard plasmatic coagulation tests (prothrombin time [PT], activated partial thromboplastin time [aPTT], fibrinogen concentration), hematology, ionized calcium, triglycerides, pH, lactate and body temperature were compared over time with Students t - test or Wilcoxon matched pairs signed-rank tests.

resultsThe following variables dropped significantly between T0 and T3.5: body temperature ( CONCLUSION AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: General anesthesia with concurrent hemodilution and hypothermia induced significant but clinically irrelevant changes in coagulation variables measured at 37 °Celsius. Blood samples from anaesthetized animals can be used for determination of coagulation status in dogs.
