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: We explored whether esketamine anesthesia during first-trimester surgical abortion can reduce intraoperative hemodynamic fluctuations and improve patients' respiratory function. Methods: A total of 197 patients who underwent a first-trimester surgical abortion were included in the analysis. Patients were randomly assigned to either the esketamine anesthesia group (group E, n=98) or sufentanil anesthesia group (group S, n=99). The primary outcomes were systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), mean blood pressure (MBP), heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR) and end-tidal carbon dioxide partial pressure (PetCO Results: Patients in Group E had a more stable intraoperative SBP (p=0.001), DBP (p=0.014), MBP (p=0.003), and HR (p=0.001). There was no significant difference in intraoperative RR between the two groups (p=0.108); however, PetCO Conclusion: Compared with sufentanil, esketamine anesthesia during the first trimester surgical abortion can maintain stable intraoperative hemodynamics and respiratory function during surgery and reduce apnea and hypoxemia. Esketamine may increase the risk of dizziness and PONV after surgical abortion.
