Dynamic needle tip positioning in short-axis versus long-axis ultrasound-guided arterial cannulation: a randomised controlled trial.
Trial report in BMC anesthesiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06422195 (Does the Dynamic Needle Tip Positioning Modification Technique in Short Axis Approach), which is not on this map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.

Abstract
backgroundAdvancements in ultrasound-guided arterial cannulation (USG-AC) are ongoing, with evidence supporting the clinical efficacy of both short-axis (SA) and long-axis (LA) approaches. The objective was to ascertain the efficacy of dynamic needle tip positioning (DNTP) modification in SA versus LA approaches for USG-AC.
methodsIn this prospective randomised controlled trial, 164 individuals were scheduled for elective surgery requiring AC. Randomisation allocated cases to DNTP, which were received as either SA or LA. The procedure involved precise patient positioning, sterile technique, and USG.
resultsSA group demonstrated significantly shorter US location times (6.16 ± 1.99 vs. 13.65 ± 3.71 s, p < 0.001) and cannulation times (10.41 ± 3.25 vs. 29.41 ± 5.27 s, p < 0.001) compared to LA group. First-pass success rates were higher in the SA group (92.68% vs. 80.49%, p = 0.022). Complication rates were comparable between groups, with no thrombosis or nerve injury cases. Operator satisfaction was notably greater in the SA group (p = 0.007) than in the LA group.
conclusionsWith DNTP modification, the SA approach demonstrates superior efficacy and success rates than the LA approach for USG-AC while maintaining comparable safety profiles and higher operator satisfaction.
