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

backgroundGeneral anesthesia and CO

methodsIn this single-center, prospective, randomized controlled trial, 80 adults (American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status I-III) scheduled for elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy were allocated 1:1 to an RM group (n = 40) or a no RM control group (n = 40). Both groups received tidal volumes of 6-8 mL/kg predicted body weight and positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) of 5 cmH2O

resultsBaseline LUS scores were comparable between groups (median [IQR], 5 [4-6] vs. 5 [4-7]; p = 0.840). After pneumoperitoneum and the first RM, the LUS scores were lower in the RM group than in the no RM control group (3 [2-4] vs. 7 [5-8.25]; p < 0.001). The difference persisted immediately after extubation (4 [3-5] vs. 6 [5-7]; p < 0.001) and at PACU assessment (3 [2-4] vs. 6 [4-7.25]; p < 0.001). The group × time interaction was significant (χ

conclusionTwo scheduled RMs were associated with lower perioperative LUS scores through early PACU follow-up without detectable differences in the recorded oxygenation or hemodynamic variables. These findings demonstrate a physiological improvement in regional aeration but do not establish a reduction in postoperative pulmonary complications or other patient-centered outcomes.
