Early extubation after pediatric cardiac surgery.
Article in Anesthesia and pain medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Early extubation after pediatric cardiac surgery has come full circle from being practiced in the early days of pediatric cardiac surgery, falling out of favor with opioid-heavy cardiostable anesthesia, and resurfacing again in more recent times as part of enhanced recovery after surgery practice. Early extubation is variably defined, but is mostly accepted as extubation that occurs within 6-8 h from the end of surgery. In recent years, the debate has shifted from early extubation in the intensive care unit to immediate extubation in the operating theatre. In this review, we examined the benefits and pitfalls of early and immediate extubation, factors that influence the success of early extubation, and potential guidelines for practice and implementation.
