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
backgroundDespite numerous studies on postdural puncture headache (PDPH) and the factors affecting it, issues such as prevention methods and techniques that are associated with a lower prevalence of this complication are still under discussion and research. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of increasing fluid therapy of patients before surgery on the incidence of postoperative headache.
methodsThis single-blind clinical trial study was performed on 60 patients undergoing elective surgery with spinal anesthesia based on the inclusion criteria in 2017 in Neyshabur. After obtaining the consent of the patients, the participants were randomly divided into two groups of intervention (A) and test (B) (30 people in each group). Data were created by self-checklist and visual analog scale (VAS) pain measurement criteria were recorded by phone during 4, 7, 24, 48, 72 hours, and 7 days after surgery.
resultsIn the study, the average headache increased up to 72 hours after surgery in the experimental group and in the intervention group up to 48 hours after surgery and then decreased.
conclusionThe results of our study generally showed that fluid therapy did not reduce headache, but showed decreasing trend of headache. According to the research results, more research is needed on the causes of headache after spinal anesthesia.
