Airway Rescue and Extended Recovery in Prone Nonintubated Anesthesia: A Narcolepsy Type 2 Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Narcolepsy presents unique perioperative challenges, particularly during postoperative recovery, while the prone position limits airway access. We present the case of a 32-year-old woman with untreated narcolepsy who underwent prone jackknife hemorrhoidectomy after declining neuraxial anesthesia. Following preoperative counseling and awake positioning, nonintubated intravenous anesthesia was maintained with remimazolam and propofol during spontaneous ventilation with high-flow nasal oxygen. A stop-and-supine airway rescue plan was prepared. She regained full orientation 13 min following anesthetic discontinuation and reported no worsening of daytime sleepiness or unintended sleep episodes during one-month follow-up. Airway rescue, emergence, and narcolepsy-related recovery were assessed as separate perioperative considerations.
