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.

Abstract

backgroundIn spite of the availability of several antiemetic drugs, postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is very common following laparoscopic surgery. Selective 5-hydroxytryptamine type 3 receptor antagonists are considered first-line agents for prophylaxis for PONV.

aimsIn this study, we investigated and compared the efficacy of ramosetron and palonosetron in preventing PONV following laparoscopic cholecystectomy. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS: The data were analyzed with Student's SETTINGS AND

designThis was a randomized, prospective, double-blinded, observational clinical study.

methodsA total number of 80 patients, undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgeries under general anesthesia, were randomly assigned to one of the two equal groups to receive either of the following: Group R - received injection ramosetron 0.3 mg and Group STATISTICAL ANALYSIS: The data were analyzed with Student's

resultsThe incidence of a complete response (no PONV and no rescue medication) during 0-3 h in the postoperative period was 82.5% with ramosetron and 90% with palonosetron; the incidence during 3-24 h postoperatively was 80% with ramosetron and 87.5% with palonosetron. During 24-48 h, the incidence was 65% and 90%, respectively (

conclusionProphylactic therapy with palonosetron is more effective than ramosetron for long-term prevention of PONV following laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
