Meta-analysis of risk factors associated with postoperative hypoxemia in the postanesthesia care unit.
Review in American journal of translational research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07344103 (Association of the Preoperative ROX Index With Early Postoperative Hypoxemia in Adult Patients Undergoing Elective Septorhinoplasty and Endoscopic Sinus Surgery), which is not on this map. Cited by 6 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.

Abstract
objectiveTo identify the risk factors associated with postoperative hypoxemia in the postanesthesia care unit (PACU), providing evidence-based recommendations for its prevention.
methodsObservational studies examining the risk factors for postoperative hypoxemia in PACU patients were systematically searched in PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases from their inception to June 2024. Two independent reviewers screened the literature, extracted data, and assessed the quality of the studies. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.3 software, employing fixed or random effects models to calculate odds ratios (OR), relative risks (RR), and 95% confidence intervals (CI).
resultsA total of 11 studies were included, comprising 8 cohort studies, 2 case-control studies, and 1 cross-sectional study, with a total of 24,147 subjects, of whom 5,587 experienced hypoxemia. The meta-analysis identified the following significant risk factors for postoperative hypoxemia in the PACU: Advanced age (OR=1.19, 95% CI: 1.11-1.29,
conclusionThese findings highlight the need for targeted preventive strategies in patients at high risk for postoperative hypoxemia in the PACU.
