General anesthesia combined with epidural anesthesia on the postoperative cognitive functions in pregnant women with dystocia.
Article in Experimental and therapeutic medicine, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Effects of general anesthesia combined with epidural anesthesia on the postoperative cognitive functions in pregnant women with dystocia were investigated. Postoperative cognitive functions of 84 dystocia pregnant women treated with cesarean section were retrospectively analyzed. Patients who received general anesthesia were included in group A (n=42), and those who received general anesthesia combined with epidural anesthesia were included in group B (n=42). Mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR) and bispectral index (BIS) at different time-points after anesthesia in the two groups of patients were observed and compared. Recovery of anesthesia such as the recovery time of spontaneous breathing, recovery time of orientation and time of eye opening were observed and compared between two groups of patients. Mini mental state examination (MMSE) scores were obtained and compared between the the groups of patients at different time-points after operation. Three vital signs (MAP, HR and BIS) were not significantly different between group A and B at the same time-point (P>0.05) and the maintenance of anesthesia was satisfactory. Compared with group A, postoperative recovery time of spontaneous breathing, recovery time of orientation and the time of eye opening in group B were all significantly shorter (P<0.05). In addition, MMSE scores of patients in group B, 2 and 12 h after operation were 24.33±1.61 and 26.41±1.83 points, respectively, which were significantly improved compared with those of patients in group A (20.45±1.58 and 22.39±1.72 points, respectively) (P<0.05). In conclusion, recovery of postoperative cognitive functions in pregnant women with dystocia who received general anesthesia combined with epidural anesthesia was shorter to that of those who only received general anesthesia.
