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

Perioperative hypothermia represents a major complication in pediatric anesthesia, particularly in neonates. We report the case of a newborn who underwent general anesthesia for esophageal fistula repair (following primary repair of esophageal atresia) and developed severe hypothermia manifested by the triad of refractory severe bradycardia, bilateral areflexic mydriasis, and chest wall rigidity. Management combining active rewarming, alkalinization, and cardiovascular support resulted in a complete recovery with a progressive normalization of clinical parameters. We discuss the clinical signs observed during this complication and draw the attention of anesthesiologists practicing in resource-limited settings, for whom these signs may enable early diagnosis of this complication.
