Postoperative nausea and vomiting after artificial joint replacement surgery: comparison between remimazolam and sevoflurane, a propensity score analysis.
Article in Journal of anesthesia, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
purposeRemimazolam, a newly synthesized ultrashort-acting benzodiazepine, has not been previously compared with sevoflurane with regard to postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). The aim of this study is to investigate the incidence of PONV between remimazolam and sevoflurane among patients undergoing artificial joint replacement surgery.
methodsWe conducted a retrospective analysis of the electronic medical records of patients who underwent artificial joint replacement surgery at Kobe City Medical Center General Hospital from 2020 to 2022, with a focus on comparing the incidence of PONV among those who received sevoflurane versus remimazolam anesthesia. To control for confounding factors, we employed a propensity score-matching technique to pair patients who received sevoflurane anesthesia with those who received remimazolam anesthesia.
resultsThe records of 292 patients receiving general anesthesia for artificial joint replacement surgery were collected and categorized into group sevoflurane (n = 241) or group remimazolam (n = 51). Before propensity score matching, age and ASA-PS exhibited significant differences between two groups. There was no significant difference in the incidence of PONV between them (p = 0.461). After matching, there were 51 patients in each group. However, there is no significant difference in the incidence of PONV between the two matched cohorts (p = 0.243).
conclusionsThis study demonstrated that there was no difference in the prevalence of PONV between remimazolam and sevoflurane anesthesia in patients undergoing artificial joint replacement surgery.
