Continuous local analgesic therapy reduces pain after radical inguinal/iliacal lymph node dissection.
Article in Langenbeck's archives of surgery, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundTo optimize postoperative pain therapy after a radical inguinal/iliacal lymph node dissection (RILND), we investigated the influence of a continuous application of a local anaesthetic via a subfascial wound catheter in the abdominal wall in addition to a standardized systemic analgesia. MATERIALS AND
methodsBetween July 2007 and December 2009, 50 patients with stage III/IV of melanoma disease received, in an observational study, a systemic analgesic therapy. Of these patients, 30 were additionally treated with a subfascial catheter. Main outcome criterion was the pain under mobilisation at the first postoperative morning registered via a visual analogue score. Minor criteria were the analgesic requirement, the specific (surgical) complications and the day of discharge.
resultsPatients treated with the subfascial catheter had significant less pain at the first postoperative morning in rest (p = 0.02) and after mobilisation (p = 0.03) without increased morbidity (p = 0.45). Less patients of the treatment group needed a supplementary analgesic medication (p = 0.01) and were able to leave hospital earlier than patients of the control group (p = 0.01).
conclusionsA subfascially placed pain catheter enhances postoperative pain therapy after RILND.
