Efficacy and adverse effects of three delivery methods for aerosolized salbutamol in anesthetized European moose (Alces alces alces): a case series.

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
backgroundWild and captive European moose (Alces alces alces) are routinely anesthetized with drug combinations including alpha-2 adrenoceptor agonists, dissociative anesthetics, and opioids. Reportedly, severe respiratory depression, ventilation/perfusion (V/Q) mismatch, and hypoxemia are common complications in this species, requiring perianesthetic oxygen supplementation as key treatment, athough high flow rates can exacerbate respiratory acidosis. Salbutamol is a β CASE PRESENTATION: Three healthy captive moose (two juveniles, male and female, and one adult male) underwent four anesthetic events for routine zoo health assessments. One juvenile was anesthetized again after 15 days and served as its own control. Moose were anesthetized with medetomidine (0.05-0.08 mg kg
conclusionAerosolized salbutamol was well tolerated, but did not provide a clear benefit for hypoxemia compared to placebo. Further studies with higher salbutamol doses, alternative delivery routes, or modified anesthetic protocols are recommended.
