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

Since 2011, indocyanine green (ICG) has been increasingly used in surgery as a diagnostic tool. Although allergic reactions to this fluorescent dye are considered rare, they can result in anaphylactic shock. We report the case of a 33-year-old woman who developed anaphylaxis immediately after ICG administration during laparoscopic-assisted high anterior resection. The patient was treated with intravenous adrenaline, and the surgery continued. Elevated plasma histamine and serum tryptase levels immediately after ICG administration and intradermal testing identified ICG as the causative agent. The frequency of ICG use is increasing, and anesthesiologists should recognize ICG as a prevalent perioperative allergen.
