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

Objective: Minimal flow anaesthesia reduces costs and environmental pollution, and has a protective effect on the respiratory tract. This study aimed to compare the ease and tolerability of minimal flow anaesthesia in the geriatric and middle-aged patient populations. Methods: In this prospective study, we enrolled 40 patients between 18 and 50 years (Group Y) and 40 patients 65 years or older (Group E), scheduled for abdominal surgery under general anaesthesia. Following a period of high flow with desflurane in O Results: The depth of anaesthesia and oxygenation parameters were adequately sustained within safe limits among all patients, while the number of changes in the fresh gas flow oxygen levels was found to be significantly lower in geriatric patients. The increase in the number of oxygen level was 1.1±0.8 in Group E and 1.8±1.2 in Group Y ( Conclusion: Administering minimal flow anaesthesia at a rate of 350 mL min
