Failure of neuraxial anesthesia for postpartum tubal ligation: a single-centre retrospective cohort study.
Article in Canadian journal of anaesthesia = Journal canadien d'anesthesie, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
purposeWe aimed to identify the neuraxial anesthesia failure rate of de novo single-injection spinal and combined spinal-epidural anesthesia for postpartum tubal ligation at our hospital along with variables associated with neuraxial anesthesia failure.
methodsWe conducted a single-centre retrospective cohort study of patients who underwent a postpartum tubal ligation with de novo single-injection spinal or combined spinal-epidural anesthesia from 1 January 2020 to 31 December 2022 at Baylor Scott & White Medical Center-Temple (Temple, TX, USA). We defined neuraxial anesthesia failure as conversion to general anesthesia involving the use of an endotracheal tube or supraglottic airway, administration of intravenous propofol at doses > 10 mg, intravenous fentanyl > 100 µg, or the use of inhaled nitrous oxide.
resultsDuring the study period, 243 patients underwent postpartum tubal ligation with single-injection spinal or combined spinal-epidural anesthesia, and 28 (11.5%) had neuraxial anesthesia failure. Using a multivariate logistic regression designed to predict neuraxial anesthesia failure using variables of interest, we found that a 5-min increase in time from spinal anesthesia placement to skin incision was associated with neuraxial anesthetic failure (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 3.10; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.01 to 4.79; P < 0.001) along with a 5-min increase in time from skin incision to wound closure (aOR 1.35; 95% CI, 1.10 to 1.66; P = 0.004)
conclusionPatients who underwent postpartum tubal ligation under single-injection spinal or combined spinal epidural anesthesia had a neuraxial failure rate of 11.5%. Time from spinal placement to skin incision and time from skin incision to wound closure were independently associated with neuraxial anesthesia failure.
