Neuraxial anesthesia versus general anesthesia for cesarean delivery: Maternal and neonatal outcomes.
Article in Bioinformation, 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
Cesarean delivery is one of the most frequently performed surgical procedures worldwide, and uncertainty persists regarding the optimal anesthetic technique to improve maternal and neonatal outcomes. This narrative review synthesizes current evidence comparing neuraxial and general anesthesia for cesarean delivery using data from major biomedical databases. Available evidence indicates that neuraxial anesthesia is associated with lower maternal morbidity, fewer anesthesia-related complications, and generally more favorable neonatal outcomes, including higher Apgar scores and reduced need for resuscitation or NICU admission. General anesthesia, although essential in specific emergency situations or when neuraxial techniques are contraindicated, is linked to increased maternal risks and certain neonatal respiratory complications. Overall, neuraxial anesthesia remains the preferred technique for most cesarean deliveries, while further prospective studies with standardized long-term outcomes are required to optimize anesthetic decision-making.
