Successful Use of Low-Dose Combination Propofol and Fentanyl in Cataract Surgery Phacoemulsification.
Article in Clinical ophthalmology (Auckland, N.Z.), 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: The combination between sedatives and opioids is one of the recommended anesthetic options in ophthalmic procedures and regimens are more advantageous as smaller amounts of each drug can be administered to reduce side effects and have proper outcomes due to the synergistic effects. This study aims to observe the use of low-dose propofol and fentanyl for patients undergoing phacoemulsification surgery. Material and Methods: This observational study involves a sample of 125 adult patients who underwent elective cataract procedures using the phacoemulsification technique and had an American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status of 1 to 3. Dose amount of fentanyl and propofol, Ramsay score, hemodynamic parameter, side effects, and patient satisfaction were evaluated, recorded, and analyzed using a 5-point Likert scale. Results: The result showed the mean absolute dose of propofol was 12.46±4.376 mg, with a range between 10 and 30 mg, while the mean per body weight was 0.21±0.075 mg. Similarly, the mean absolute dose for fentanyl was 25.04±3.012 mcg within the range of 10-50 mcg, and the per-body weight dose was 0.43±0.080 mcg. About 90.4% and 9.6% of the patients reached Ramsay 2 and 3, respectively. The analysis of systolic, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, and pulse rate showed that the combination of low-dose fentanyl and propofol was significantly lower than before therapy administration in all four values (p < 0.05). Conclusion: The combination of low-dose propofol and fentanyl in cataract surgery using phacoemulsification successfully reached the targeted sedation level and a significant decrease in blood pressure, MAP, pulse rate, minimal side effects, and high satisfaction rate.
