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

Among the 321 million surgeries performed globally each year, sevoflurane dominates the inhaled anesthesia field due to its unique pharmacological properties. However, studies indicate that sevoflurane exerts multiple adverse effects on the nervous system, and its potential neurotoxic effects are increasingly drawing attention. This article integrates multi-level evidence from molecular mechanisms, cellular models, animal experiments, and clinical studies to comprehensively elucidate the key mechanisms underlying sevoflurane-induced neurotoxicity, including ferroptosis pathway activation, calcium homeostasis disruption, BDNF signaling abnormalities, neuroinflammatory responses, and endoplasmic reticulum stress. The findings aim to provide a theoretical foundation for developing precise neuroprotective strategies and optimizing clinical anesthesia protocols.
