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

Purpose This study was conducted to compare the efficacy and safety of remimazolam with those of sevoflurane in patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) surgery. Methods This study was a single-center, retrospective observational study. Adult patients who underwent OPCAB surgery between April 2023 and July 2024 and received sevoflurane or remimazolam for maintenance of general anesthesia were included. The primary outcome was intraoperative average blood pressure (ABP). Secondary outcomes were amounts of norepinephrine and other vasopressors used during surgery, intraoperative heart rate (HR), fluid balance, central venous O
