Article in Indian journal of anaesthesia, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

The evolution of artificial intelligence (AI) systems in the field of anaesthesiology owes to notable advancements in data processing, databases, algorithmic programs, and computation power. Over the past decades, its accelerated progression has enhanced safety in anaesthesia by improving the efficiency of equipment, perioperative risk assessments, monitoring, and drug administration systems. AI in the field of anaesthesia aims to improve patient safety, optimise resources, and improve the quality of anaesthesia management in all phases of perioperative care. The use of AI is likely to impact difficult airway management and patient safety considerably. AI has been explored to predict difficult intubation to outperform conventional airway examinations by integrating subjective factors, such as facial appearance, speech features, habitus, and other poorly known features. This narrative review delves into the status of AI in airway management, the most recent developments in this field, and its future clinical applications.
