Noninvasive respiratory support in the perioperative setting: a narrative review.
Review in Frontiers in medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The application of preoperative noninvasive respiratory support (NRS) has been expanding with increasing recognition of its potential role in this setting as a physiological optimization for patients with a high risk of developing atelectasis and postoperative pulmonary complications (PPC). The increased availability of high-performance anesthesia ventilator machines providing an easy way for NRS support in patients with reduced lung function should not be under-evaluated. This support can reduce hypoxia, restore lung volumes and theoretically reduce atelectasis formation after general anesthesia. Therapeutic purposes should also be considered in the perioperative setting, such as preoperative NRS to optimize treatment of patients' pre-existing diseases, e.g., sleep-disordered breathing. Finally, the recent guidelines for airway management suggest preoperative NRS application before anesthesia induction in difficult airway management to prolong the time needed to secure the airway with an orotracheal tube. This narrative review aims to revise all these aspects and to provide some practical notes to maximize the efficacy of perioperative noninvasive respiratory support.
