Inguinal hernia repair in an elderly patient with moderate aortic stenosis under sole epidural anesthesia: A case report.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Key Clinical Message: In resource limited settings, epidural anesthesia can be a safe option for elderly patients with aortic stenosis for lower abdominal surgeries as the hemodynamic changes are known to be less as compared to spinal or general anesthesia. Abstract: Spinal or general anesthesia in an elderly patient with aortic stenosis is always a challenge for anesthesiologists. It is even more challenging in a resource limited setting. The marked hemodynamic changes associated with either spinal or general anesthesia increase the morbidity and mortality. We present a case of right inguinal hernia in a 71-year-old patient with hypertension, bradycardia, and moderate aortic stenosis planned for open mesh repair under sole epidural anesthesia.
