Fentanyl and Propofol Versus Fentanyl and Etomidate for the Insertion Conditions of Laryngeal Mask Airway: A Prospective Observational Study.
Article in Journal of pharmacy & bioallied sciences. 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
Background: Laryngeal mask airway (LMA) is often used in short surgeries for its easy insertion and minimal invasiveness but successful placement needs reflex suppression and stable vitals. This study compared Fentanyl-Propofol which gives better insertion but may cause hypotension with Fentanyl-Etomidate which maintains hemodynamics but causes more myoclonus. Material and Methods: 60 American Society of Anesthesiologists I-II patients aged 18-60 years were included in this prospective study. Group A got Fentanyl + Propofol. Group B got Fentanyl + Etomidate. We compared attempts, time, ease, vitals, and side effects. Results: Group A had better insertion, first attempt success 90% versus 60%, time 23.27s versus 80.63s, and ease 96.67% versus 66.67%. Group B showed more myoclonus (43.33%), jaw tightness, and limb movements. Hemodynamics gets better with etomidate. Conclusion: Fentanyl-Propofol is better for smooth LMA insertion. Etomidate useful in unstable patients but may need caution due to insertion issues.
