Propofol and Kearns-Sayre Syndrome: An idiographic approach.
Article in Sultan Qaboos University medical journal, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
With the focus on an idiographic approach whereby the observations incorporated the various dimensions of individual functioning 'top-down' to 'bottom-up', this case report describes the successful management of a 14-year-old girl with Kearns-Sayre syndrome and Dyggve-Melchior-Clausen disease requiring a transvenous permanent pacemaker implantation for complete heart block. The patient presented to a tertiary care centre in Muscat, Oman, in 2023 seeking consultation. The current idiographic approach appears to have a heuristic value for 2 interrelated reasons. Firstly, it is unlikely that even tertiary care units can accrue such rare presentations and scrutinise them under nomothetic approach. Secondly, by employing the idiographic approach that is capable of examining each case in-depth, the aspiration for good health and well-being may come to the forefront. To the best of the authors' knowledge this is the first published idiographic report in anaesthesia care.
