Comparison of the effects of general and spinal anesthesia for cesarean delivery on maternal and fetal outcomes: A retrospective analysis of data.
Article in Northern clinics of Istanbul, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06160583 (General Anesthesia in Obstetric Patients for Cesarean Section, Maternal and Perinatal Outcomes), which is not on this 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.

Abstract
objectiveGeneral or single-shut spinal anesthesia (SA) is applied for cesarean section and both methods of anesthesia have different effects on the mother and newborn. This retrospective study, in which 1-year data were analyzed, was aimed to examine the effects of general or SA on maternal and neonatal outcomes.
methodsAnesthesia technique, mother's age, gestational age, number of pregnancies, previous cesarean delivery number, maternal complications, and indications for cesarean delivery were analyzed in 883 cesarean deliveries. In addition, weight and Apgar scores of newborn and umbilical cord blood gas values were examined.
resultsNeonatal intensive care need was higher in the general anesthesia (GA) group, Apgar scores were higher in the SA group, but neonatal mortality was similar. The umbilical cord Ph and lactate were lower; PCO
conclusionWhile umbilical cord blood gas values were less affected and the need for neonatal intensive care was lower with SA, we believe that both anesthesia methods can be used safely for mother and neonatal in cesarean anesthesia considering maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality.
