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: Spinal anesthesia is increasingly used in neonates to minimize respiratory complications such as apnea and bradycardia. It also avoids delayed recovery associated with general anesthesia (GA) and provides stable intraoperative conditions for infraumbilical surgeries. To assess the efficiency of subarachnoid block (SAB) as a sole anesthetic method in neonates undergoing infraumbilical surgeries and evaluate hemodynamic parameters (PR, BP, SPO Materials and Methods: This prospective observational study was conducted in the Department of Anesthesiology, M.Y. Hospital and MGM Medical College, Indore, with 84 neonates (0-28 days) undergoing infraumbilical surgeries. SAB was administered at the L4-L5 interspinous space using 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine (0.5 mg/kg). Results: The mean age was 14.39 days with 62.5% males. Hemodynamic parameters remained stable (HR: 162.5 bpm, SPO Conclusion: SAB is a safe, simple, and cost-effective alternative to GA ensuring hemodynamic stability and minimal postoperative complications in neonates.
