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

objectiveTo compare the anesthetic effects of ciprofol and propofol in painless gastrointestinal endoscopy (PGE) for elderly patients.

methodsA retrospective analysis was carried out In 200 elderly patients who underwent PGE at the Quzhou Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University between September 2023 and August 2024. Based on anesthetics they received, patients were divided into a propofol group (n=109) and a ciprofol group (n=91), with further stratification by American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) classification (I/II). Outcome measures, including the anesthesia-related indices, blood pressure at different time points [upon entering the procedure room (T0), after anesthesia induction (T1), 2 minutes after scope insertion (T2), and upon leaving the procedure room (T3)], the incidence of adverse reactions, and patient satisfaction were compared between the two groups.

resultsThe two groups showed comparable anesthesia induction time, gastrointestinal endoscopy duration, time to recovery of orientation, and recovery time from anesthesia (all

conclusionFor PGE in elderly patients, ciprofol demonstrates significant advantages over propofol in reducing adverse reactions, alleviating pain, and improving patient satisfaction.
