Cerebral hemodynamics and safety of ciprofol in laparoscopic bariatric surgery: a parallel, double-blind, randomized controlled clinical trial.
Trial report in Frontiers in medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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: Obesity has become a global health crisis. Laparoscopic bariatric surgery, a commonly used method for treating obesity, can significantly alter intracranial hemodynamics due to surgical positioning and pneumoperitoneum pressure, thereby increasing the likelihood of perioperative complications in obese individuals. Ciprofol, a novel propofol analog, offers advantages such as reduced side effects and enhanced stability, but its effects on brain blood flow regulation in obese patients are not yet fully understood. This clinical trial was designed to validate its superior efficacy in preserving cerebral perfusion and maintaining hemodynamic stability. Methods: The trial was structured as a randomized, double-blind research with parallel arms. Research was carried out from 1st February 2023 to 30th May 2023 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University. Patients, with body mass index ranging from 30.6 to 51.2 kg/m Results: A total of 43 patients were ultimately included in this study (21 in the propofol group and 22 in the ciprofol group). Compared with baseline, patients receiving propofol group exhibited marked reductions in CBFVm at T Conclusion: This study found that, compared to propofol, ciprofol may be a better anesthetic choice for obese individuals receiving laparoscopic bariatric surgery, as it maintains CBFVm and hemodynamics more steadily, causes less injection discomfort, and demonstrates comparable safety and adverse event rates to those of propofol.
