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: The primary aim of our study was to determine which patient characteristics were associated with opioid consumption following cesarean delivery. Methods: The Baylor Scott & White Research Institute institutional review board approved this study (024-178). Patients who underwent cesarean delivery at Baylor Scott & White Medical Center - Temple with single injection or combined spinal epidural anesthesia in 2023 were eligible for inclusion. We examined the medical records of 300 patients, calculated the 24-hour opioid consumption for each, and compared the top third to the low group in a bivariate analysis and then performed a multivariate logistic regression. Results: One hundred thirty-one patients had no opioid consumption in the first 24 postoperative hours, and 100 patients had a morphine milligram consumption of 30 to 117.5 mg. A multivariate logistic regression determined that patients in the higher opioid consumption cohort were more likely to have received combined spinal epidural anesthesia (odds ratio 2.079; 95% confidence interval 1.149, 3.762; Conclusion: Intraoperative administration of intravenous dexmedetomidine and combined spinal epidural anesthesia was associated with increased postoperative opioid consumption following cesarean delivery.
