The Effect of Sevoflurane Plus Propofol on Pain and Complications after Laminectomy: A Randomized Double Blind Clinical Trial.
Article in Journal of clinical and diagnostic research : JCDR, 2017. 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
introductionPain is one of the most important reasons for the patients concern after surgery. The perfect sedative should have properties like rapid onset, least pain and adverse effects.
aimTo assess the effect of sevoflurane plus propofol on postoperative pain, haemodynamic stability and complication after lumbar disc surgery. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis was a randomized double- blind clinical trial. A total of 75 patients scheduled for elective lumbar disc surgery with simple random sampling design received sevoflurane (n=25, induced with Thiopentone and maintained with sevoflurane), propofol (n=25, induced and maintained with propofol) and sevoflurane plus propofol (n=25, induced with propofol and maintained with sevoflurane). Visual Analog Scale (VAS) was used to determine the intensity of postoperative pain. Complications after surgery and haemodynamic changes during surgery were recorded.
resultsThe mean pain intensity and morphine consumption in the sevoflurane plus propofol group was lower compared to the propofol and sevoflurane groups at different intervals (p<0.001). The prevalence of shivering, nausea and vomiting in the sevoflurane plus propofol group was 24%, 28%, 28% respectively vs sevoflurane group 32%, 60%, 48% respectively and propofol group 32%, 16%, 12% respectively with p-value > 0.05, <0.001, <0.05 respectively. The mean blood pressure and heart rate were significantly lower in the sevoflurane plus propofol group compared to the propofol and sevoflurane groups (p<0.001).
conclusionAccording to the effect on pain and complications after lumbar disc surgery sevoflurane plus propofol can be regarded as safe and alternative drug in general anaesthesia for these patients.
