1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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: Propofol combined with opioids is commonly used for procedural sedation, enhancing patient tolerance and reducing the incidence of adverse events. This study aimed to determine the 90% effective dose (ED Methods: This randomized, double-blind, dose-finding trial enrolled patients undergoing painless upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. Participants were assigned to receive propofol combined with fentanyl or oliceridine. A biased coin up-and-down sequential design was used to estimate the ED Results: A total of 115 patients were included in the final analysis (59 in Group F and 56 in Group O). The ED Conclusion: The ED Clinical Trial Registration: https://www.chictr.org.cn/, identifier ChiCTR2500096971.
