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

backgroundThe postoperative pain in percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is due to dilatation of the renal capsule and the parenchymal tract. The aim of the study was to evaluate the analgesic effect of preoperative single-shot ultrasound(US)-guided erector spinae plane block (ESPB) at theT11 vertebral level in patients undergoing PCNL. MATERIAL AND

methodsIn this prospective randomized controlled study 56 patients were randomized into 2 groups; group B and group C. An erector spinae plane block (ESPB) was performed preoperatively in all patients; patients in group B received 30 ml 0.25% bupivacaine, while patients in group C received 30 ml normal saline as placebo. The following parameters were evaluated: intraoperative fentanyl consumption, time to first use of patient controlled analgesia (PCA), postoperative morphine consumption over 24 h, pain scores at 0, 2, 4, 6, 12 and 24 h, sedation scores at 2, 6, 12 and 24 h, and patient satisfaction.

resultsPatients in group B had lower intraoperative fentanyl consumption (P = 0.01), longer time to first use of PCA (P = 0.01), lower rescue morphine consumption over 24 h (P = 0.002), and higher patient satisfaction scores (P = 0.02). Postoperative numerical rating scale scores were lower in group B at 2 and 12 h (median = 3 and 2, respectively), as opposed to the control group (median = 4 and 3, respectively, P = 0.02). Sedation scores were higher in group C at 2 and 6 h after the procedure (P = 0.02 and 0.03, respectively).

conclusionThe use of US-guided ESPB provides a good postoperative analgesia and decreases opioid consumption over 24 h in patients undergoing PCNL.
