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

Malignant hyperthermia during surgery represents a significant challenge for anesthesiologists due to its high mortality rate and the risk of long-term physiological damage. Despite preventive measures, malignant hyperthermia cases continue to be reported. The standard and effective response involves the prompt administration of dantrolene, a specific antidote. However, dantrolene availability can differ across countries and regions; not all healthcare facilities can guarantee its immediate availability for early intervention. This case report details the successful management of malignant hyperthermia in an adult during surgery without the use of dantrolene.
