A systematic review and meta-analysis of the effect of different doses of rocuronium for general anesthesia on thyroid surgery.
Article in Gland surgery, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundThe most common complication of thyroid anesthesia is recurrent laryngeal nerve injury, and anesthesia drugs affect the intraoperative recurrent laryngeal nerve monitoring indicators, especially nerve blockers, which can cause muscle relaxation and affect vocal cord contraction. The purpose of this study was to investigate the optimal dose of rocuronium during general anesthesia (GA) during thyroid surgery by meta-analysis.
methodsChinese and English databases were searched by the combination of "thyroid", "general anesthesia", and "rocuronium bromide". Publications which took double dose rocuronium GA surgery as the double group and normal dose rocuronium GA surgery as the normal group were included, and Review Manager 5.3 (Rev Man 5.3) was employed for meta-analysis.
resultsA total of fifteen publications were included in the meta-analysis and an overall heterogeneity test was conducted to obtain the results. Comparison of the operation time between the double group and the normal group showed the mean difference (MD): 20.93, 95% confidence interval (CI): (11.48, 30.39) min, Z=4.34, I DISCUSSION: This meta-analysis confirmed that a double dose of rocuronium can meet the needs of anesthesia induction and GA during thyroid surgery.
