Heart-Rate-Corrected QT Interval Response to Ramosetron during Robot-Assisted Laparoscopic Prostatectomy: A Randomized Trial.
Article in Journal of personalized medicine, 2022. 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
Ramosetron, often used to prevent postoperative nausea and vomiting, might cause heart-rate-corrected (QTc) interval prolongation, as might robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP), which requires a steep Trendelenburg position and CO2 pneumoperitoneum. This study aimed to determine how ramosetron administration affects the QTc interval in patients treated with RALP. Fifty-six subjects were randomly assigned to ramosetron (n = 28) or control (n = 28) groups. The ramosetron group received 0.3 mg of ramosetron after anesthetic induction, whereas the control group received normal saline. The QTc interval was measured before and after induction; after 5, 30, and 60 min of being placed in the Trendelenburg position; immediately after being returned to a supine position; and at the end of surgery. Linear mixed models were used to compare QT intervals between groups. QTc intervals did not differ significantly between groups over time (Pgroup×time = 0.111). However, they increased significantly in both groups after placement in the Trendelenburg position compared with before induction (Ptime < 0.001). This increase in QTc continued until the end of surgery in both groups. Based on these findings, ramosetron can be safely administered for the prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting among patients undergoing RALP.
