Effects of pressure versus volume controlled ventilation on postoperative pulmonary complications during elderly trendelenburg laparoscopic surgery.
Trial report in Scientific reports, 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
The impact of different mechanical ventilation modes on pulmonary outcomes following laparoscopic surgery in the Trendelenburg position remains unclear. This study aimed to compare the effects of two common ventilation modes on postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) in elderly patients undergoing such procedures. Elderly patients scheduled for laparoscopic surgery in the Trendelenburg position were randomly allocated to receive either pressure-controlled ventilation (PCV) or volume-controlled ventilation (VCV). Both groups were managed with a lung-protective ventilation strategy. The primary outcome was the incidence of PPCs within the first three postoperative days. Airway pressures, details enabling the calculation of respiratory system dynamic compliance (Cdyn) and arterial blood gas levels were also recorded at predetermined intraoperative time points: before anesthesia induction (T0); 10 min after tracheal intubation in the supine position without pneumoperitoneum (T1); 30 min (T2) and 60 min (T3) after establishing pneumoperitoneum and the Trendelenburg position; and at the end of surgery after returning to the supine position (T4). Compared with the VCV group (32.1%), the PCV group exhibited a significantly lower incidence of PPCs (13.0%; χ
