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

Background and Aims: Infants are at the highest risk of oxygen desaturation during induction of anesthesia owing to their distinct anatomical and physiological characteristics. Prolongation of non-hypoxic safe apnea time by use of positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) during induction has been studied extensively in adults. Although few studies have been conducted in infants, they lacked methodological rigor. Hence, we designed a scientifically rigorous study aimed at investigating the effects of application of PEEP during induction of anesthesia on the duration of non-hypoxic apnea time in infants. Material and Methods: Seventy-two infants were induced as per institutional protocol and mechanically ventilated for three minutes with volume-controlled ventilation and set ventilator parameters with PEEP of either 7 cm H Results: The duration of non-hypoxic apnea time was significantly longer in the PEEP group (n = 33) as compared to the control group (n = 33); 122 s (IQR = 52) vs. 95 s (IQR = 27) ( Conclusions: Addition of PEEP of 7 cmH
