Comparison of oropharyngeal leak pressure and insertion characteristics of Ambu AuraGain and i-gel in patients undergoing laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair: A randomized control trial.

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
Background and Aims: Airway protection and adequate ventilation are the main aim for the patients undergoing laparoscopic surgeries under general anesthesia. The study intended to compare the oropharyngeal leak pressure (OLP) and insertion parameters and postoperative complications between Ambu AuraGain and i-gel in laparoscopic hernia repair surgeries. The primary objective was to compare the OLP at insertion and after pneumoperitoneum and positioning. The secondary objectives were to compare the time required for insertion, number of attempts, ease of insertion, and ability to insert gastric tube, grade of fiber-optic glottic view and postoperative complications. Material and Methods: A randomized controlled trial of 50 patients belonging to American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status grade I and II, aged between 18-60 years, was randomly divided into group AAG and Group IG. Results: No significant difference was found between the two groups in terms of OLP at insertion and 5 min after pneumoperitoneum. However, OLP at 30 min of pneumoperitoneum was statistically higher with Ambu AuraGain than i-gel (27.72 ± 2.67 cm H Conclusions: The OLP and fiber-optic glottic view of Ambu AuraGain are better than i-gel with longer insertion time, and the rest of the variables were comparable. We conclude that Ambu AuraGain is superior to i-gel in adult patients undergoing laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair under general anesthesia.
