Factors associated with unintended perianesthesia hypothermia.
Article in Proceedings (Baylor University. Medical Center), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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: Our hypothesis was that total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) is associated with an increase in hypothermia. Methods: Inclusion criteria were patients from the National Anesthesia Clinical Outcomes Registry undergoing a general anesthetic during 2019. Data collected included patient age, sex, American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status classification system score (ASAPS), duration of anesthetic, use of TIVA, type of procedure, and hypothermia. Continuous variables were compared using Student's Results: There was a low incidence of hypothermia (1.2%). Patients who became hypothermic were older, had a higher median ASAPS, and had a higher rate of TIVA. TIVA patients had a significantly increased odds for hypothermia when controlling for covariates. Patients undergoing obstetrical, thoracic, or radiological procedures had increased odds for hypothermia. In a matched cohort subset, TIVA was associated with a greater rate and increased odds for hypothermia. Conclusions: The novel and noteworthy finding was the association between TIVA and perianesthesia hypothermia. Thoracic, radiologic, and obstetrical procedures were associated with greater rates of and odds for hypothermia. Other identified factors can help to stratify patients for risk for hypothermia.
