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
Objective: To explore the clinical efficacy and safety of dexmedetomidine hydrochloride for preoperative sedation in children undergoing emergency facial trauma cosmetic suturing. Methods: A total of 200 children with facial trauma admitted to the Emergency Surgery Department of our hospital from January to June 2025 were retrospectively enrolled and assigned to two groups for different sedation interventions. The study group received preoperative intranasal dexmedetomidine hydrochloride spray, while the control group received routine comfort care. The UMSS Sedation Scale was used to assess sedation level objectively, and rescue dosing protocols were implemented for sedation failure. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS 30.0 software, with a two-tailed Results: A total of 100 cases were included in both the study group and the control group, with no baseline differences between the two groups ( Conclusion: Preoperative intranasal dexmedetomidine hydrochloride is an effective and safe regimen for improving intraoperative cooperation, stabilizing vital signs, reducing agitation, and enhancing cosmetic suture quality and family satisfaction in children with emergency facial trauma.
