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

purposeAnesthetic management during rigid bronchoscopy in children can be challenging, and continuous end-tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO

methodsWe enrolled patients aged < 18 yr scheduled for rigid bronchoscopy in a prospective observational study. We recorded TcCO

resultsA total of 30 patients were enrolled. The median [interquartile range (IQR)] age was 3.5 [1.5-8.0] yr. The incidence of hypercapnia was 100% in the OR and 60% in the PACU. Five cases (17%) presented with severe hypercapnia in the OR. The highest median [IQR] TcCO

conclusionHypercapnia was a frequent event in children undergoing rigid bronchoscopy and severe hypercapnia was associated with a long PACU stay. Further studies are needed to assess the utility of TcCO
