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

Backgroud: In recent years, as the number of people with obesity has surged, the number of morbidly obese patients has also grown. The pathophysiological changes in morbid obesity can lead to combined lung diseases, which may result in hypoventilation, hypoxemia, acute upper airway obstruction, acute respiratory distress syndrome, and sleep apnea syndrome, posing serious challenges to anesthesia management. Here, we describe a case of the administration of remimazolam combined with remifentanil in a patient with morbid obesity undergoing gastroscopy. This has rarely been reported in clinical practice, and we present our management experience here with the aim of providing a reference for clinical work. Case presentation: We report the case of a 32-year-old male hypertensive patient with a height of 180 cm, weight of 145 kg, and body mass index of 44.8 kg/m Conclusion: The procedure lasted 30 min, and the anesthesia was satisfactory with no complications. Remimazolam combined with remifentanil intravenous anesthesia is safe for short gastroscopy in patients with morbidly obesity. The administration of a small dose of split-titration delivery facilitates the maintenance of stable vital signs.
