Medication errors in the practice of paediatric anaesthesia - a narrative review.
Review in Anaesthesiology intensive therapy, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Medication error has emerged as a significant problem in healthcare, especially in the past 2 decades. In anaesthesia, the paediatric age group is particularly at risk of such events because of complex age- and weight-based drug calculation, drug formulations, serial dilutions, and often limited staff experience in handling such patients. We searched PubMed, Cochrane, and Google Scholar for literature on medication errors in paediatric anaesthesia in children (< 18 years of age). Two authors searched for the articles independently, and a third author sorted any consensus differences. A total of 2979 articles were retrieved. We studied primary outcomes, the results, and conclusions of the various studies. A total of 21 relevant articles were selected finally. Following preventive strategies like colour coding, accurate dose calculations, verification by a second individual, and checking and encouraging self-reporting can improve perioperative safety in the paediatric population to a significant extent.
