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: Ciprofol provides more stable induction, though its impact on patients' quality of recovery (QoR) and brain oxygenation requires clarification. This trial assessed whether propofol anesthesia is non-inferior to ciprofol regarding postoperative recovery quality, while additionally comparing their effects on intraoperative cerebral oxygenation. Patients and Methods: This single-center, randomized, double-blind, non-inferiority study involved 94 patients scheduled for elective surgery, randomized equally to receive ciprofol (Group C) or propofol (Group P). The primary outcome was the global QoR-15 score measured 24 hours after surgery, with a non-inferiority threshold set at -6.0. Secondary outcomes included 48-hour QoR-15 scores, injection pain frequency, vasopressor requirements, and regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rScO Results: Eighty- eight patients completed the study (Group C: 44; Group P: 44). In ITT analysis, the mean QoR-15 score at 24 hours for Group C was non-inferior to Group P ( Conclusion: Ciprofol is non-inferior to propofol regarding early postoperative recovery quality. Furthermore, ciprofol mitigates injection pain, reduces vasoconstrictor requirements, and better maintains cerebral oxygenation.
