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

Aims: Transoesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is widely used for cardiac assessment and requires moderate sedation due to its semi-invasive nature, carrying potential risks. Music is a non-pharmacological strategy shown to reduce anxiety in various clinical settings. We prospectively investigated whether music could reduce anxiety and/or sedation dosage in patients undergoing TEE. Methods and results: Sixty-three patients (>18 years) referred for TEE were randomized into a music group ( Conclusion: Although music did not reduce sedation requirements, it significantly decreased anxiety levels and blood pressure; music may be a valuable adjunct to sedation in patients undergoing TEE.
