Comparative study of a modified double-lumen tube ventilation control connector and traditional connector in clinical use: a randomised-controlled trial.
Trial report in BMC anesthesiology, 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
backgroundA Y-shaped rotatable connector (YRC) for double-lumen tubes (DLT) is invented and compared with the traditional connector (Y-shaped connector, YC).
methodsSixty patients with ASA grade I-III, aged ≥ 18 years, who needed to insert a DLT for thoracic surgery were recruited and assigned into the YRC group (n = 30) and the YC group (n = 30) randomly. The primary endpoints included the inhaled air concentration (Fi) and the exhaled air concentration (Et) of sevoflurane before and after the switch between two-lung ventilation and one-lung ventilation at different times, positioning time, and switching time. The secondary endpoints were the internal gas volume of the two connectors, airway pressure, and the sputum suction time.
resultsThe Et and Fi of the YRC group and the YC group were significantly different (all p < 0.05) at 5s, 10s, and 30s after the patient switched from two-lung ventilation to one-lung ventilation. The positioning time of the YRC group was less than YC group (89.75 ± 14.28 s vs 107.80 ± 14.96 s, p < 0.05), as well as the switching time (3.60 ± 1.20 s vs 9.05 ± 2.53 s, p < 0.05) and the internal gas volume (17.20 ml vs 24.12 ml). There was no difference in airway pressure and the sputum suction time in two groups.
conclusionCompared with YC, YRC was beneficial for maintaining depth of anesthesia, improves efficiency for the switch between one-lung and two-lung ventilation, and shortens the tube positioning time.
