Randomized Controlled Trial Investigating the Impact of High-Flow Nasal Cannula Oxygen Therapy on Patients Undergoing Robotic-Assisted Laparoscopic Rectal Cancer Surgery, with a Post-Extubation Atelectasis as a Complication.
Article in Journal of multidisciplinary healthcare, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07676760 (The Role of High-Flow Nasal Cannula in Monitoring Postoperative Atelectasis With Lung Ultrasonography After Laparoscopic Surgery), 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.
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
Background: Utilizing high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) oxygen therapy may prevent the collapse of alveoli and improve overall alveolar ventilation. In this study, we aimed to investigate the impact of HFNC on postoperative atelectasis in individuals undergoing robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery. Methods: Patients undergoing robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery for rectal cancer were randomly assigned to the control or HFNC groups. After the surgical procedure was complete and the trachea was extubated, both groups underwent an initial lung ultrasound (LUS) scan. In the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU), the control group received conventional nasal cannula oxygen therapy, while the HFNC group received high-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy. A second LUS scan was conducted before the patient was transferred to the ward. The primary outcome measured was the total LUS score at the time of PACU discharge. Results: In the HFNC group (n = 39), the LUS score and the incidence of atelectasis at PACU discharge were significantly lower compared to the control group (n = 39) [(5 vs 10, P < 0.001), (48.72% vs 82.05%, P = 0.002)]. None of the patients in the HFNC group experienced hypoxemia in the PACU, whereas six patients in the control group did (P = 0.03). Additionally, the minimum SpO2 value in the PACU was notably higher in the HFNC group compared to the control group [99 vs 97, P < 0.001]. Conclusion: Based on the results, HFNC improves the extent of postoperative atelectasis and decreases the occurrence of atelectasis in individuals undergoing robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery for rectal cancer.
