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 oxygen reserve index (ORi), as an adjunct to standard intraoperative pulse oximetry (SpO₂), enables prediction of hypoxia and detection of hyperoxia. The aim of this study was to analyze intraoperative variations in oxygen metabolism using ORi and partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood (PaO2) under conditions of ventilation compromised by the Trendelenburg tilt and pneumoperitoneum during a robot-assisted prostatectomy. MATERIAL AND METHODS One hundred adult patients scheduled for an elective robotic prostatectomy participated in this study from January 2023 to March 2024. They were all anesthetized in the same way. ORi was monitored at 10 time points. Arterial blood gas analyses were performed to determine PaO₂: before the induction of anesthesia (G1), after the patient was placed in the Trendelenburg position (G2), and after returning the patient to initial position (G3). The obtained data were then analyzed. RESULTS In multivariable analysis, statistically significant positive correlations were observed between ORi and PaO₂ at the following time points: (BEG) before the induction of anesthesia (Rho=0.410) and (PP+T) after the patient was placed in the Trendelenburg position (Rho=0.521). However, no relationship was observed between ORi and PaO2 and the duration of the Trendelenburg position and pneumoperitoneum. CONCLUSIONS ORi strongly correlates with PaO₂ values and is sensitive in detecting hyperoxia. Therefore, it appears that ORi can serve as a non-invasive monitoring tool for better oxygen management during anesthesia. Further research is needed on its use in detecting impending hypoxia in conditions of steep Trendelenburg position and pneumoperitoneum.
