Linear thinking does not reflect the newer 21st-century anesthesia concepts. A narrative review.
Review in Journal of clinical monitoring and computing, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The brain constitutes a good example of a chaotic, nonlinear biological system where large neuronal networks operate chaotically with random connectivity. This critical state is significantly affected by the anesthetic loss of consciousness induced by drugs whose pharmacological behavior has been classically based on linear kinetics and dynamics. Recent developments in pharmacology and brain monitoring during anesthesia suggest a different view that we tried to explore in this article. The concepts of effect-site for hypnotic drugs modeling a maximum effect, electroencephalographic dynamics during induction, maintenance, and recovery from anesthesia are discussed, integrated into this alternative view, and how it may be applied in daily clinical practice.
