Effect of local warming for arterial catheterization in adult cardiac surgery: a randomized controlled trial.
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. It is linked to trial NCT04969692 (Local Warming Technique for Arterial Cannulation in Adult Patients Under Heart Surgery-A Randomized Controlled Trial), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
Background: The increase in internal diameter (ID) and cross-sectional area (CSA) may facilitate better arterial catheterization. Since an increase in body temperature can cause peripheral vasodilation, we aimed to determine if local warming of the radial artery (RA) catheterization site could improve the success rate of catheterization. Methods: This randomized, controlled study enrolled 160 patients aged >18 years who were scheduled for heart surgery. They were randomized into non-warming palpation (NP), non-warming ultrasonography-guided (NU), warming palpation (WP), and warming ultrasonography-guided (WU) groups. After induction, the baseline RA ultrasonography images were collected. In the warming groups (WP, WU), local warming was applied on the catheterization site. Before catheterization, the RA ultrasonography images were collected. The primary outcome was the first-attempt success rate. The secondary outcomes included the ID and CSA of the RA and overall complications. Results: Totally 152 adults were included in the analysis. The first-attempt success rates in each of the four groups were not significantly different (P=0.985). The rates in the non-warming (NP + NU) and warming (WP + WU) groups were also not different (P=0.827). Unlike non-warming group, the warming group had increased ID (3.34±0.78 Conclusions: Local warming for peripheral artery catheterization does not increase the first-attempt success rate in adults undergoing cardiac surgery; however, it can increase the ID and CSA of the RA and prevent vasospasm.
