Oculocardiac reflex during endoscopic brow lift: A case report.
Article in JPRAS open, 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
Background: The oculocardiac reflex (OCR) is a trigeminovagal reflex most commonly associated with ophthalmic surgery. Its occurrence in aesthetic facial procedures is rarely reported. Case Presentation: A 44-year-old woman with no underlying medical conditions underwent elective endoscopic brow lift under general anesthesia using volatile anesthetic agents. Baseline heart rate was 90 beats per minute. During traction near the right supraorbital rim, severe bradycardia occurred with heart rate dropping to 20 beats per minute. The event resolved after cessation of traction and administration of intravenous atropine. Similar bradycardia recurred during left-sided supraorbital traction and again during sustained forehead fixation, demonstrating a reproducible reflex response, with atropine required for resolution of the final episode. Conclusion: This case highlights that OCR may occur repeatedly during endoscopic brow lift due to supraorbital nerve manipulation. Awareness and prompt management are essential for patient safety.
