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

backgroundAlfentanil, a short-acting µ opioid receptor agonist, has recently been confirmed that when combined with propofol for daytime hysteroscopy, it provided more stable hemodynamics compared with sufentanil, and has a lower incidence of hypoxemia and postoperative nausea and vomiting. The object of the trial was to determine the median effective dose (ED

methodsOne hundred and forty patients scheduled hysteroscopy under monitored anesthesia care were randomized to receive a bolus of 8 µg·kg

resultsThe calculated ED

conclusionsFor women undergoing hysteroscopic surgery, a dose of 10-12 µg·kg

trial registrationThe study was then registered on January 24, 2024 at the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry which participates in the World Health Organization International Clinical Trials Registry Platform (Identifier: ChiCTR2400080232) before enrolling the first participant and written informed consent was obtained by each patient.
