Conscious sedation as a potential optimal anesthetic regimen for endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography in elderly frail patients: A prospective, single-blind, randomized controlled trial.

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
Objective: To investigate the impact of adverse cardiovascular events (ACVs) in elderly frail patients undergoing emergency endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), and to explore a safe and comfortable anesthetic regimen suitable for this specific population. Materials and Methods: A single-center, prospective, single-blind, randomized controlled trial was conducted. Patients aged 70-90 years scheduled for emergency ERCP were enrolled and randomly divided into two groups: the conscious sedation group (Group S) and the intravenous general anesthesia group (Group A). Basic clinical data of the patients were recorded. During ERCP, the occurrence of ACVs was documented, including hemodynamic fluctuations exceeding 20% of the baseline value, angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, cardiac arrest, acute heart failure, myocardial ischemia, pulmonary embolism, and various arrhythmias. Additionally, adverse reactions such as hypoxemia, body movement, and cough during the procedure were monitored. The effects of different anesthetic methods on ACVs in elderly frail patients undergoing emergency ERCP were compared, and the satisfaction of patients, anesthesiologists, and endoscopists was evaluated. Results: A total of 108 patients undergoing emergency ERCP were enrolled and randomly assigned to Group S ( Conclusion: Compared with intravenous general anesthesia, conscious sedation can reduce fluctuations in blood pressure and heart rate, and decrease the incidence of adverse cardiovascular events in elderly frail patients undergoing emergency ERCP.
