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

backgroundRemimazolam, an innovative benzodiazepine, exhibits potential for use in anesthesia and sedation for pediatric outpatient procedures, due to its rapid onset, predictable metabolism, and favorable safety profile. While adult studies are increasing, comprehensive evidence for pediatric use remains limited. This scoping review aims to systematically summarize and delineate the existing evidence concerning the application and features of remimazolam in anesthesia and sedation for outpatient pediatric surgical procedures.

objectiveTo systematically map existing evidence on remimazolam use in pediatric ambulatory surgery anesthesia and sedation, identifying key concepts, evidence sources, and knowledge gaps.

methodsFollowing JBI methodology and PRISMA-ScR guidelines, we will search multiple databases, as well as the recommendations provided in the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension tailored for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) statement. A comprehensive search will be performed using multiple databases, which include PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), Web of Science, CINAHL, Scopus, Google Scholar, along with Chinese databases like the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), WanFang Data, and VIP Information.. All published studies on remimazolam use in patients ≤18 years for ambulatory surgery will be included. Two reviewers will independently screen and extract data using a standardized form.
