[Selective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors for postoperative pain therapy. Analgesic efficacy and adverse effects].
Review in Der Anaesthesist, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Systemic administration of analgesics is still the most widely used method for postoperative pain therapy. In the concept of balanced or multimodal analgesia non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) play an important role besides opioids. Their analgesic effect is based on a diminished prostaglandin synthesis by inhibition of the cyclooxygenase (COX) enzyme in the arachidonic acid metabolism. The discovery of at least two COX isoenzymes led to the development of selective COX-2 inhibitors that were hypothesized to have an improved risk-benefit-ratio compared with conventional NSAIDs. In this context the analgesic efficacy and adverse effects of selective COX-2 inhibitors for postoperative pain therapy were evaluated by reviewing the pertinent literature.
