1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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/aim: This study aims to determine the possible embryotoxic effects of propofol on the cerebellum and spinal cord using fertile chicken eggs. Materials and methods: A total of 430 fertile eggs were divided into 5 groups: control, saline, 2.5 mg.kg Results: No structural malformation was observed in any embryos examined macroscopically. No significant difference was observed between the groups in terms of development and histologic organization of the cerebellum and spinal cord. However, on the 15th, 18th, and 21st day, the outer granular layer (p < 0.001 for all days) and the total cortex thickness (p < 0.01, p < 0.001, and p < 0.001, respectively) decreased significantly in different propofol dose groups in varying degrees in the cerebellum. Similarly, in the spinal cord, there were significant changes in the ratios of the substantia grisea surface area to the total surface area (p < 0.01 and p < 0.001, respectively). Conclusion: It was concluded that the in-ovo-administered propofol given immediately before incubation has adverse effects on the developing cerebellum and spinal cord. Therefore, it is important for anesthesiologists always to remain vigilant when treating female patients of childbearing age.
