Bispectral Index versus the University of Michigan Sedation Scale in assessing sedation depth during pediatric drug-induced sleep endoscopy.
Article in Sleep & breathing = Schlaf & Atmung, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 and purposeBispectral Index (BIS) and University of Michigan Sedation Scale (UMSS) were two commonly used methods of monitoring the sedation depth, but their correlation was not clear. The purpose of this study is to ascertain if BIS correlates with UMSS in determining the sedation level during pediatric drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE).
methodsOne-hundred children, aged 36-143 months, with ASA I~II grade, were enrolled. They were subject to general anesthesia for an elective adenotonsillectomy. Two drug regimens were used. After UMSS ≥ 3, the sites of airway obstructions were located by checking the supraglottic airway structures with a fibrous laryngoscope. UMSS scores, BIS values, electromyography (EMG), and signal quality indices (SQIs) were recorded at the pre-medication and pre-DISE baseline (T
resultsThere were strong correlations between BIS monitor readings and UMSS scores for total and two regimens. Kappa values revealed moderate agreement between BIS and UMSS for total and two regimens. The agreement rates were 67.47% for the total, 61.43% for Regimen 1, and 73.42% for Regimen 2, respectively.
conclusionBIS correlates with UMSS in determining the sedation level during pediatric DISE for two regimens. BIS might serve as an appropriate indicator of sedation intensity when UMSS could not be used.
