The influence of haemorrhagic shock on the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic effects of remimazolam in a swine model: A laboratory study.
Article in European journal of anaesthesiology and intensive care, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundHaemorrhagic shock enhances the potency of several intravenous anaesthetics.
objectiveTo assess the influence of haemorrhagic shock on the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic effects of remimazolam, a new short-acting benzodiazepine.
designAn animal observational study.
settingAn animal laboratory in Hamamatsu University School of Medicine, Hamamatsu, Japan, from 3 April to 7 June 2021. ANIMALS: Ten pigs, 24.5 ± 0.5 (mean ± standard deviation) kg.
interventionsPigs were anaesthetised with isoflurane, and raw electroencephalographic waveforms, bispectral index (BIS) and 95% spectral edge frequency (SEF) were recorded throughout the study. After isoflurane was stopped, remimazolam was administered at a rate of 150 mg h
main outcome measuresPharmacokinetic variables were quantified using a three-compartment model and the pharmacodynamic variables were estimated using an inhibitory sigmoid maximal effect model.
resultsThe peak remimazolam concentration increased from 1.0 ± 0.3 to 1.5 ± 0.4 μg ml
conclusionHaemorrhagic shock alters the pharmacokinetics of remimazolam, but does not enhance the end-organ sensitivity. Because the impact of haemorrhagic shock is small, remimazolam might be a suitable sedative/hypnotic for the management of patients who have massive bleeding.
