Surgical bleeding in patients undergoing posterior lumbar inter-body fusion surgery: a randomized clinical trial evaluating the effect of two mechanical ventilation mode types.
Trial report in European journal of medical research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThe purpose of the study was to compare the effect of using volume-controlled ventilation (VCV) versus pressure-controlled ventilation (PCV) on blood loss in patients undergoing posterior lumbar inter-body fusion (PLIF) surgery.
methodsIn a randomized, single-blinded, parallel design, 78 patients, candidates for PLIF surgery, were randomly allocated into two groups of 39 to be mechanically ventilated using VCV or PCV mode. All the patients were operated in prone position by one surgeon. Amount of intraoperative surgical bleeding, transfusion requirement, surgeon satisfaction, hemodynamic parameters, heart rate, and blood pressure were measured as outcomes.
resultsPCV group showed slightly better outcomes than VCV group in terms of mean blood loss (431 cc vs. 465 cc), transfusion requirement (0.40 vs. 0.43 unit), and surgeon satisfaction (82.1% vs. 74.4%); however, the differences were not statistically significant. Diastolic blood pressure 90 and 105 min after induction were significantly lower in PCV group (P = 0.043-0.019, respectively); however, blood pressure at other times, hemoglobin levels, and mean heart rate were similar in two groups.
conclusionsIn patients undergoing posterior lumbar inter-body fusion surgery, mode of ventilation cannot make significant difference in terms of blood loss; however, some minor benefits in outcomes may lead to the selection of PCV rather than VCV. More studies with larger sample size, and investigating more factors may be needed.
