Physiological pattern differences in non-intubated
Article in Journal of thoracic disease, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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: It is still weak with evidence of the targeted anesthesia management for non-intubated thoracic anesthesia, mainly based on the professional experience and information on the anesthesia sheet. Our study elucidates the differences in dynamic physiological parameters, including arterial oxygen saturation (SpO Methods: A prospective, observational, controlled study was conducted at a single national center for respiratory medicine, involving 131 non-intubated and 155 intubated patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) [including sublobectomy (SubL) or lobectomy (Lob)]. Propensity score matching (PSM) resulted in 78 matched pairs for SubL; however, PSM was not applied for Lob. Clinical characteristics, anesthetic use, adjuvant drug use, and postoperative outcomes were compared between the two groups. Physiological parameters were recorded every 10 seconds using a lung-brain-heart-anesthesia platform and analyzed through descriptive statistics, visualization, feature extraction, and slope analysis. Results: The protocol of both non-intubated SubL and Lob reduced the use of sevoflurane, sufentanil, remifentanil, and cisatracurium (P<0.01). In the process of non-intubated thoracic anesthesia, statistical analysis of interquartile range (IQR) and the percentage of monitoring parameters values within the normal range showed significant results: a higher BIS percentage (72.2-78.9%), a similar SpO Conclusions: Using a real-time database, the non-intubated thoracic anesthesia management pattern is firstly clearly demonstrated, which differs from the intubated anesthesia with the machine-controlled pattern. Reducing intravenous anesthetics with regional nerve blocks could maintain spontaneous ventilation (SV), ensure adequate oxygen supplementation, an appropriate depth of anesthesia and HR. This approach, tolerating mild hypercapnia, permissive lower mean artery pressure, notably results in postoperative outcomes comparable to intubated anesthesia. Non-intubated anesthesia accelerates postoperative recovery in the PACU, particularly for Lob patients.
