Effects of acupuncture on postoperative recovery and extubation time: A protocol for systematic review and meta analysis.
Article in Medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 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.
Who cites it
1 citing paper in PubMed, 1 synthesis or guideline pooled it.

Abstract
backgroundThis systematic review protocol aims to provide evidence of the efficacy and safety of acupuncture on postoperative recovery and extubation time.
methodsThe following 11 electronic databases will be searched from inception: The Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, MEDLINE, EMBASE, AMED, CINAHL, 1 Chinese database (CNKI), and 5 Korean databases (OASIS, DBpia, RISS, KISS, NDSL). Only randomized controlled trials of acupuncture treatment for postoperative recovery after surgery will be included for review. The selection of the studies, data extraction, and management will be performed independently by 3 researchers. Methodological quality, including the risk of bias, will be assessed using the Cochrane risk of bias assessment tool. RESULTS AND
conclusionsOur systematic review will provide evidence of the efficacy of acupuncture on postoperative recovery and extubation time. This evidence will provide useful information to practitioners and patients in the field of surgery and complementary medicine. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER: 2020 CRD42020168411.
