Perioperative systemic magnesium sulfate minimizes the incidence of atrial fibrillation after thoracotomy for lung resection: a prospective observational study.
Article in Journal of thoracic disease, 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: Postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) is the most common complication following general thoracic surgery. POAF significantly increases the risk of adverse cardiovascular events, such as thromboembolism, heart failure, and mortality. Additionally, it also leads to prolonged hospital stays and higher costs. The objective of this observational study was to examine the impact of perioperative administration of magnesium sulphate (MgS Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted, enrolling one hundred patients undergoing thoracotomy for lung resection. We compared the incidence of atrial fibrillation (AF) before and after implementing a change in our standard anesthetic management, which involved the addition of MgS Results: Within the initial three days following surgery, there was no significant difference in the cumulative incidence of POAF between the MgS Conclusions: Prophylactic administration of MgS
