Trial report in Canadian journal of anaesthesia = Journal canadien d'anesthesie, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05914285 (Assessment of Salbutamol Effect on Arterial Oxygenation in COPD Patients During One-lung Ventilation), which is not on this map. Not yet cited in PubMed.

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.

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.

Abstract

purposeVentilation-perfusion mismatch during one-lung ventilation (OLV) for thoracic surgery increases the risk of hypoxemia. Salbutamol may selectively dilate pulmonary vessels and enhance perfusion of the ventilated lung. We sought to investigate whether selective salbutamol nebulization to the ventilated lung during OLV improves gas exchange and respiratory mechanics in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

methodsIn this prospective randomized controlled trial, we randomly allocated 90 patients scheduled for lung resection to receive salbutamol or placebo nebulization 30 min after OLV initiation and analyzed 82 patients (41 per group). The primary endpoint was the change in the partial pressure of arterial oxygen/fraction of inspired oxygen (PaO

resultsCompared with placebo, salbutamol increased PaO

conclusionsSelective salbutamol nebulization during OLV improved oxygenation and respiratory mechanics without serious adverse events, and it may be considered as an adjunctive option for the management of intraoperative hypoxemia in patients with COPD. The lack of benefit among patients who received preoperative inhaler therapy suggests that intraoperative selective one-lung nebulization may be more advantageous than preoperative two-lung nebulization.
