Controlled Hypotension for Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery With Two Different Doses of Fentanyl.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background and Objectives Functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) is a type of minimally invasive surgery done for acute and chronic sinus diseases or paranasal illnesses. The idea of FESS is to preserve the normal anatomy, which is non-obstructing and mucous membrane while removing tissue obstructing OMC (osteo metal complex) and facilitating drainage. The critical structures, including the brain, orbit, and carotid veins, the lack of adequate operating room, and bleeding that obscures endoscopic vision throughout the procedure may increase the likelihood of unfavorable surgical results. This study seeks to examine the hemodynamic effects of intubation and extubation as well as the impact of fentanyl infusion on lowering blood pressure during FESS procedures. Materials and Methods Sixty-eight patients from the American Society of Anesthesiologists classes 1 and 2 who were planned for functional endoscopic sinus operations were randomly split into two groups for this randomized prospective trial. Group 1 patient belonging to the fentanyl 2 mcg per kg bolus 30 minutes before induction followed by 2 mcg per kg per hr infusion for 90 minutes of surgery, and Group 2 patient belonging to fentanyl 1 mcg per kg bolus 30 minutes before induction followed by 1 mcg per kg per hr infusion for 90 minutes of surgery. The significance of the difference in quantitative measures was measured using the student-t test, and the Chi-square test was used to measure up the difference in proportion. Statistically significant was set at P<0.05. Results Mean systolic blood pressure was higher in members of Group 2 than in Group 1. In contrast to Group 2, Group 1 had considerably better surgical field conditions, surgeon satisfaction on the AONO'S scale, post-operative nausea and vomiting, and a post-operative VAS Score during the first 24 hours. Conclusion Pre-induction Fentanyl with infusion can effectively control hypotension during functional endoscopic sinus surgery.
