Effects of preconditioning with one-lung ventilation on perioperative oxygenation and oxidative stress in thoracoscopic surgery: a prospective single-center randomized controlled clinical trial.
Trial report in BMC anesthesiology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundHypoxemia is a common and clinically significant problem during one-lung ventilation (OLV). Prophylactic ventilation strategies to prevent OLV-associated hypoxemia and lung injury remain insufficiently defined.
methodsPatients scheduled for elective video-assisted thoracoscopic lung lobectomy or segmentectomy were enrolled and randomly assigned into a preconditioning group or a control group. After anesthesia induction, a visual double-lumen endotracheal tube was inserted. The preconditioning group underwent three cycles of OLV preconditioning protocol before surgery: 2 min OLV → 2 min two-lung ventilation (TLV) → 4 min OLV → 4 min TLV → 6 min OLV → 6 min TLV. The control group received conventional OLV only. Ventilation parameters: the tidal volume was set at 6 mL/kg during OLV and 8 mL/kg during TLV. Respiratory rate was adjusted to maintain an end-tidal carbon dioxide partial pressure of 35-45 mmHg. The primary outcome was the oxygenation index (arterial partial pressure of oxygen/fraction of inspired oxygen, PaO
resultsSeventy-four patients were included in the final analysis. The oxygenation index decreased in both groups after initiation of OLV, reaching its lowest value at 30 min. At this time point, the preconditioning group showed a significantly higher oxygenation index than the control group (209 ± 64 vs. 145 ± 43 mmHg, P < 0.001). No significant differences were observed between the two groups in perioperative superoxide dismutase (SOD) levels [168 ± 16 vs. 160 ± 21 U/mL, P = 0.302] or in the incidence of PPCs (10/38 vs. 16/36, P = 0.105).
conclusionsOLV preconditioning improved intraoperative oxygenation during thoracic surgery, but did not significantly affect perioperative oxidative stress or the incidence of PPCs.
