Trial report in HNO, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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
backgroundThe purpose of this work was to assess postoperative pain management after middle ear surgery. MATERIALS AND
methodsIn a prospective clinical study, 73 adults were evaluated on the first postoperative day after middle ear surgery using the questionnaire of the Germany-wide project QUIPS (quality improvement in postoperative pain management). The main outcome measures were patients' characteristics, pain parameters, outcome, and pain therapy process parameters.
resultsOverall, pain on the first postoperative day was mild. Pain management consisted predominately of premedication with midazolam, remifentanil intraoperatively, metamizole in the recovery room and on the ward. Otherwise healthy patients suffered significantly more from pain than patients with reduced general condition in univariate and multivariate analyses. About half of the patients demanded pain relief on the ward. Despite immediate pain management with nonopioids and/or opioids, these patients had significantly more maximal pain and were less satisfied with overall pain therapy than patients not demanding pain therapy. DISCUSSION: QUIPS is a simple tool to evaluate the quality of in-hospital postoperative pain management following ear surgery. Pain on the first postoperative day seems to be moderate but should be improved for patients demanding more analgetics despite baseline pain therapy on the ward.
