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

objectivesCatheterization of urinary bladder during surgery frequently leads to agitation of the patient in the recovery room, especially in those patients who remain catheterized after gaining consciousness. We hypothesized that administration of a combination of ketamine-haloperidol (KH) before urinary catheterization would reduce the incidence of catheter-related bladder discomfort (CRBD) while reducing some adverse effects of ketamine in the postoperative period.

methodsA total of 119 male patients who underwent lumbar spinal stenosis surgery were randomized into three groups. The KH group consisted of 39 patients who received KH just before urinary catheterization. The second arm of the study including 40 patients who received pethidine-haloperidol (PH). The control (C) group consisted of 40 patients who received normal saline as a placebo. We sought to determine the incidence and severity of CRBD at arrival in recovery and one, six, and 24 hours after.

resultsThe incidence of CRBD upon arrival in the recovery room was 17.9% in the KH group, and 52.5% and 55% in the PH and C groups, respectively. The incidence of CRBD was significantly lower in the KH group at arrival in the recovery room. The severity of CRBD was lower in the KH group at one and six hours of surgery (

conclusionsIntravenous administration of KH before urinary catheterization effectively decreases the incidence and severity of postoperative CRBD while reducing adverse effects attributed to ketamine.
