Comparison of the Effectiveness of Transnasal Humidified Rapid Insufflation Ventilator Exchange (THRIVE) with Facemask Pre-Oxygenation in 40 Patients ≥65 Years of Age Undergoing General Anaesthesia During Gastrointestinal Surgery for Intestinal Obstruction.
Trial report in Medical science monitor : international medical journal of experimental and clinical research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
BACKGROUND In this study, we aimed to compare the effectiveness of transnasal humidified rapid insufflation ventilator exchange (THRIVE) with facemask pre-oxygenation in 40 patients ≥65 years of age undergoing general anesthesia during gastrointestinal surgery for intestinal obstruction. MATERIAL AND METHODS Patients with gastrointestinal obstruction were randomized to either a facemask group (group M, n=20) or THRIVE group (group T, n=20). During pre-oxygenation, the 2 groups used a facemask (100% oxygen, 6 L/min) and THRIVE (100% oxygen, 40 L/min) to supply oxygen, respectively. Induction of anesthesia was performed in both groups using facemasks and without mechanical or assisted ventilation. The intubation occurred after myorelaxant action began. When the peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO₂) dropped below 95%, or 480 s after administration of muscle relaxants, mechanical ventilation was initiated immediately. The primary outcome was arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO₂) at 5 min after pre-oxygenation. A secondary outcome was time to SpO₂ of 95% during apnea, with a cut-off time of 480 s. RESULTS PaO₂ at 5 min after pre-oxygenation was (261.5±30.9) mmHg for group M and (446.1±84.4) mmHg for group T (P<0.001). Based on survival analysis, the median time-to-event in group T was 480 s (95% CI 415.7 s - upper limit unknown) and 240 s (95% CI 225.9-254.1 s) in group M (P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS In elderly patients undergoing rapid sequence induction, pre-oxygenation with THRIVE could improve oxygenation and extend safe apnea time, compared with facemask pre-oxygenation.
