The clinical advantage of nasal high-flow in respiratory management during procedural sedation: A scoping review on the application of nasal high-flow during dental procedures with sedation.
Article in The Japanese dental science review, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Structured summary: Rationale: Nasal high-flow (NHF), a new method for respiratory management during procedural sedation, has greater advantages than conventional nasal therapy with oxygen. However, its clinical relevance for patients undergoing oral maxillofacial surgery and/or dental treatment remains uncertain and controversial, due to a paucity of studies. This scoping review compared and evaluated NHF and conventional nasal therapy with oxygen in patients undergoing oral maxillofacial surgery and/or dental treatment. Materials and methods: A literature search of two public electronic databases was conducted, and English writing randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of nasal high flow during dental procedure with sedation reviewed. The primary and secondary outcomes of interest were the incidence of hypoxemia and hypercapnia during sedation and the need for intervention to relieve upper airway obstruction, respectively. Results: The search strategy yielded 7 studies, of which three RCTs met our eligibility criteria, with a total of 78 patients. Compared with conventional nasal therapy with oxygen, NHF significantly reduced the incidence of hypoxemia and hypercapnia during procedural sedation. Conclusion: NHF can maintain oxygenation and possibly prevent hypercapnia in patients undergoing dental treatment. Additional RCTs are needed to clarify and confirm these findings.
