Comparison of the Effects of Sevoflurane and Isoflurane on Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction Following Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy: A Prospective Study.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 Laparoscopic surgeries, including cholecystectomy, are typically conducted with intravenous induction using anaesthetics such as propofol. This study used sevoflurane and isoflurane as alternatives to propofol to minimise adverse events and compare their effectiveness. Materials and methods The research was a prospective randomised study conducted at the Department of Anaesthesiology, Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences (RIMS), Ranchi, Jharkhand, India, for one and a half years. A total of 90 patients participated in the study, evenly split into two groups (sevoflurane and isoflurane) in a 1:1 ratio. Ethical clearance was obtained from the Institutional Ethics Committee (IEC), RIMS, Ranchi, Jharkhand, India, under letter number 131/IEC/RIMS, dated 27 June 2023. Results In terms of the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) classification, more participants were categorised as grade II in the sevoflurane and isoflurane groups. Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) scores were evaluated at various time intervals. There was no significant difference between the sevoflurane and isoflurane groups after six hours of anaesthesia. Total MOCA scores were found to be significant at a p-value of 0.04 after 24 hours of anaesthesia between the sevoflurane and isoflurane groups. Conclusion The study concluded that the incidence of the MoCA score decreased in the isoflurane and sevoflurane groups at one hour and six hours postoperatively. Adverse events, such as nausea, vomiting, and shivering, also decreased over time.
