Regional Anesthesia for High-Risk Patients Undergoing Total Knee Arthroplasty: A Case Report.

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
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a commonly performed surgery for individuals experiencing advanced knee osteoarthritis. Patients undergoing TKA can present with a variety of comorbidities, ranging from the absence of chronic illnesses to the presence of multiple health conditions. The complexity of these comorbidities can pose challenges in carrying out the desired procedure due to the elevated risk profile; this limits the anesthesia modalities that the physician can utilize. Careful consideration of patients' overall health status and personalized anesthesia approaches are crucial to ensure optimal outcomes in this diverse patient population. This case involves an eighty-year-old male with a history of multiple comorbidities who underwent a left TKA. The patient presented a high-risk profile during evaluation, classified as American Society of Anesthesiology (ASA) class IV, which made general and neuraxial anesthesia unfavorable due to high risks. Regional anesthesia was utilized as the sole modality of anesthesia and was successful. This demonstrates that regional anesthesia is a viable option when attending to patients with high risks associated with other anesthesia modalities.
