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

Background: Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is a common complication of gynecological laparoscopic surgeries. Although propofol has established antiemetic properties, the efficacy of its water-soluble prodrug, fospropofol, for PONV prophylaxis remains uncertain. The aim of this study was to compare the impact of fospropofol versus propofol on the incidence of PONV in high-risk patients undergoing gynecological laparoscopic surgery. Methods: In this prospective randomized controlled trial, 102 high-risk (Apfel score ≥3) female patients scheduled for elective gynecological laparoscopy were allocated to receive either fospropofol (FD group, n=51) or propofol (P group, n=51) for induction and maintenance, combined with sevoflurane inhalational anesthesia. The primary outcome was the incidence of PONV within the first 6 h postoperatively. Results: The incidence of PONV at 6 h was significantly lower in the FD group than in the P group (5.9% vs 19.6%; absolute risk reduction, 13.7%; Conclusion: A reduction in early PONV within 6 hours was observed with fospropofol compared to propofol, suggesting a potential role for fospropofol in early PONV prevention. Clinical Trial Registration: ChiCTR2500114542.
