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

Although scientific interest in the field of pain research is unremitting and the understanding of acute pain mechanisms has eminently advanced, it is evident that clinical practice of postoperative pain management still has major deficits. Indeed, the use of regional analgesia via a catheter, e.g. epidural analgesia (EDA), or patient controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) has become very popular. These methods require special equipment, adequate nursing skills and professional expertise as well as the establishment of clinical procedures and an appropriate logistic setup. However, the majority of patients are not managed by EDA or PCIA and cannot be ignored due to lack of knowledge of the proper use of basic analgesic treatment. Therefore, it makes sense to establish a standardized step-concept of postoperative pain management with regular quality control integrated into a multimodal perioperative rehabilitation program.
