Randomized Comparison of Oblique versus Transverse Orientation for Ultrasound-Guided Internal Jugular Venous Cannulation in Pediatric Heart Surgery Patients.
Trial report in Annals of cardiac anaesthesia, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundUltrasound-guided internal jugular venous access improves the rate of successful cannulation of the internal jugular vein in both adult and pediatric patients. Internal jugular venous cannulation in pediatric patients is anatomically and technically more challenging than in adults. The oblique method is a novel approach for guiding central venous cannulation. There is currently a scarcity of research on central venous cannulation techniques for pediatric patients.
aimThe purpose of this study was to compare the success rates between the oblique and transverse approach of jugular venous cannulation in pediatric cardiac surgery patients.
methodsA prospective randomized clinical trial of pediatric patients who underwent cardiac surgery at Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital was conducted between February and May 2021. Sixty patients were randomized into two groups: 30 in the oblique group and 30 in the transverse group.
resultsThere was no difference in the first needle pass success rate between the oblique and transversal approaches (86.7% vs. 73.3%; P = 0.19). There is no difference in the total number of attempts between the two groups (1.3 vs 1.43; P > 0.05).
conclusionThere was no difference between oblique and transverse orientations for internal jugular venous cannulation in pediatric cardiac surgery patients in terms of successful cannulation on the first needle pass and total number of attempts.
