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
backgroundAlthough oxygen is critical in anesthesia, high-concentration exposure, even for short periods during preoxygenation, may contribute to oxidative stress. In the context of perioperative care optimization, minimizing unnecessary oxidative burden is essential for patient safety. This study investigated the acute effects of standard versus rapid preoxygenation strategies on thiol-disulfide homeostasis and blood gas parameters in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis prospective observational study enrolled 62 ASA I-II patients scheduled for elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Patients received 100% O₂ via standard preoxygenation using a tight-fitting face mask for 3 min (Group 1) or rapid preoxygenation consisting of eight deep breaths over 30 s to 1 min (Group 2). Blood samples were collected at four perioperative time points: before preoxygenation (T0), after preoxygenation (T1), post-intubation (T2), and at surgery end (T3). Thiol-disulfide homeostasis was evaluated biochemically; blood gas analyses were performed immediately.
resultsGroup 1 showed a significant decline in total thiol levels and a trend toward increased disulfide levels, indicating elevated oxidative stress. Group 2 exhibited more stable thiol-disulfide dynamics. Blood gas analysis revealed greater acidosis, elevated lactate, and increased pCO₂ in Group 1, while Group 2 demonstrated more favorable acid-base and metabolic profiles. Importantly, these effects were observed despite longer surgical durations and higher smoking rates in Group 2, highlighting the potential of optimized preoxygenation to improve perioperative metabolic stability.
conclusionStandard preoxygenation was found to induce greater oxidative stress and metabolic disturbances compared to rapid preoxygenation. Incorporating rapid preoxygenation into anesthesia induction protocols may enhance perioperative safety by preserving redox balance and reducing metabolic derangements. These results underscore the need to reevaluate current preoxygenation practices, particularly in metabolically vulnerable patients. Further studies should assess long-term outcomes and applicability in high-risk populations.
