The risk of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in pediatric patients under dental and oral surgery.

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
backgroundPostoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is a relatively common complication of general anesthesia. We encountered PONV in pediatric patients after dental and oral maxillofacial surgeries under general anesthesia. In particular, there is a higher incidence of PONV due to bleeding of the oral cavity and aspiration of gastric contents. In this study, we retrospectively investigated the risk factors of PONV on the first postoperative day in pediatric patients.
methodsThis study was approved by the Kyushu University Clinical Research Ethics Committee and was conducted retrospectively, so informed consent for participation was not obtained. The anesthesia records of patients (aged 0-12 years) were retrospectively reviewed. The patient underwent dental and oral maxillofacial surgeries. The patients' background, anesthesia time, use of anesthetic drugs, nitrous oxide (N
resultsA total of 589 patients were enrolled, with a mean age of 5.6 ± 2.8 years, and were divided into two groups based on the presence or absence of PONV. Eighty-six patients (14.6%) complained of PONV. The occurrence of PONV was correlated with age, anesthesia time, fentanyl, N
conclusionOur findings suggest that the administration of fentanyl may be associated with an increased risk of PONV in pediatric patients undergoing dental and oral and maxillofacial surgery under general anesthesia.
