1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundPulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) is a treatment modality for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). PEA requires anesthesia management to prevent an increase in pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) and circulatory failure. Therefore, it is necessary to select an anesthetic agent that can achieve these goals as much as possible. On the other hand, remimazolam, a short-acting sedative, was launched in Japan in 2020, and its use in various cases has been increasingly reported. This report demonstrates that remimazolam can be used safely in the anesthetic management of PEA. CASE PRESENTATION: A 57-year-old man was scheduled to undergo PEA for CTEPH. Remimazolam was used for sedation from induction of anesthesia. Hemodynamics were stable during surgery without circulatory failure. Anesthesia was managed intraoperatively without any particular increase in PVR. DISCUSSION: Anesthesia was successfully managed without any complications. This case suggests that remimazolam is one of the options for anesthetic management in PEA.
