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

Noonan syndrome (NS) is an autosomal dominant congenital disorder characterized by short stature, facial dysmorphology, and congenital heart defects. It is associated with a bleeding diathesis and abnormal coagulation tests as well. Anesthetic management in these patients poses a multitude of challenges, including cardiovascular instability due to congenital heart diseases, hemorrhage caused by hemostatic disorders, and difficult airway management as a result of orofacial anomalies. In addition to this, post-tonsillectomy hemorrhage (PTH) is a potentially life-threatening complication. In this case report, we describe a four-year-old patient with NS who underwent adenoidectomy and tonsillectomy due to sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (SAHS). He required emergent reintervention due to PTH. The patient did not suffer hypoxemia, pulmonary aspiration, nor did he require a blood transfusion. This case report pertains to the successful anesthetic management of a child with NS who suffered PTH. This troubleshooting situation is associated with several risks, such as difficult intubation, hypoxemia, hypotension, and pulmonary aspiration.
