Synthesis in BMC surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07713355 (Impact of Multimodal Brain Monitoring Under General Anesthesia on Postoperative Outcomes in Elderly Patients Undergoing Major Abdominal Surgery), which is not on this map. Cited by 18 papers, 3 of them syntheses that pooled it.

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.

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.

Abstract

objectiveThis review explores recent advancements in anesthesia care, focusing on the integration of innovative practices to enhance patient outcomes across the perioperative period.

methodsFollowing the framework of Whitmore and Knafl, we systematically searched six databases (PubMed, Google Scholar, EMBASE, CINAHL, OVID, and Cochrane Library) for studies published from January 2020 to January 2024, relating to advancements in anesthesia care, best practice implementation, and patient outcomes. After independent screening and data extraction by two reviewers, the review focuses on innovations in anesthetic drugs, monitoring technologies, anesthesia techniques, and evidence-based practices in anesthesia and clinical guidelines.

resultsOf the 25,984 studies retrieved, 26 met inclusion criteria. Recent developments in anesthetic drugs have improved safety and efficacy, reducing complications. Advanced monitoring devices, such as multiparameter and brain function monitors, have enhanced patient safety through real-time assessments. Innovations in regional anesthesia and ultrasound-guided nerve blocks have led to better pain management, reduced recovery time, and minimized morbidity. Additionally, evidence-based practices like comprehensive preoperative assessment, patient education, and multidisciplinary teamwork significantly improved patient outcomes.

conclusionIntegrating the latest innovations and best practices in anesthesia care is essential for optimizing patient outcomes. Ongoing research and adoption of advanced technologies are crucial to addressing current challenges and enhancing anesthesia quality. This review emphasizes the importance of a holistic approach from preoperative preparation to postoperative recovery to achieve optimal patient outcomes.
