The Influence of Remimazolam versus Propofol on Quality of Emergence and Sleep in Elderly Patients After Spinal Surgery: A Non-Randomized Observational Study.
Observational study in Drug design, development and therapy, 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
Purpose: Elderly patients undergoing spinal surgery face postoperative challenges, including delayed emergence and sleep disorders. The study aims to compare remimazolam versus propofol on postoperative emergence and sleep quality in this population, providing evidence for perioperative anesthesia management. Patients and methods: This prospective cohort study enrolled patients age 60-85 years; American society of anesthesiologists(ASA) I-III;preoperative Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI)score < 7; Body Mass Index(BMI) ≤ 35 kg/m Results: The R group had significantly shorter emergence and extubation times ( Conclusion: Among elderly patients undergoing elective posterior lumbar surgery with preoperative PSQI < 7, results from this single‑center study suggest that the combination of remimazolam and flumazenil is associated with shorter emergence and extubation times, as well as improved postoperative sleep quality.
