Utility of Remimazolam for Fast-Track Recovery Following Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement in an Elderly Patient With Severe Aortic Stenosis: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Remimazolam is an ultra-short-acting benzodiazepine that has minimal hemodynamic effects and is useful for early extubation after cardiac surgery. We present a case of an elderly patient with severe aortic stenosis (AS) who underwent surgical aortic valve replacement (AVR), was extubated in the operating room, and recovered quickly without postoperative delirium. An 87-year-old woman with severe AS underwent AVR under cardiopulmonary bypass. General anesthesia was induced with remimazolam 10 mg over one minute and fentanyl 100 µg, and maintained with remimazolam 0.4-0.7 mg/kg/hour, fentanyl, and remifentanil. Intraoperative hemodynamic condition was stable without vasopressors. Remimazolam was discontinued after sternum closure. She recovered consciousness five minutes after the completion of the surgery, and the tracheal tube was removed in the operating room. Remimazolam may be useful for fast-track recovery following surgical AVR in an elderly patient with severe AS.
