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/

objectivesSpinal anesthesia, frequently used in cesarean deliveries, can have a significant impact on newborns. This study aims to evaluate the effects of spinal anesthesia with morphine or fentanyl as adjuvants on neonatal outcomes.

methodsA retrospective study was conducted over a specific period on 170 newborns delivered via cesarean section at the Pelican Clinic, Medicover Hospital, Romania. The neonatal parameters assessed included Apgar scores at 1 and 5 min, oxygen saturation, respiratory rate, and heart rate in two groups of newborns whose mothers underwent spinal anesthesia with bupivacaine combined with either morphine or fentanyl (group M_n and group F_n). Statistical analysis was performed using IBM SPSS Statistics (version 29.0.2.0 (20)).

resultsNewborns in the M_n group had significantly higher Apgar scores at 1 min compared to those in the F_n group (9.63 ± 0.57 vs 9.40 ± 0.65,

conclusionsThe use of morphine in maternal spinal anesthesia may improve immediate neonatal adaptation, particularly in male newborns.
