Preoperative Counseling Method and Postoperative Opioid Usage: A Secondary Analysis of the PREOP Study.

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
objectiveThe purpose of this analysis is to determine if postoperative opioid usage differs among women randomized to office or phone preoperative counseling for pelvic organ prolapse surgery.
methodsThis was a planned exploratory analysis of the Patient Preparedness for Pelvic Organ Prolapse Surgery study, which randomized women to standardized preoperative counseling by office visit or phone call before prolapse surgery. Inclusion criteria were the completion of the assigned counseling intervention and submission of a 7-day postoperative pain and medication diary. Multivariable logistic regression was done to assess the association between counseling method and total opioid use while controlling for variables significant on univariate analysis (surgery type and county of residence).
resultsThere were 84 participants with postoperative data (41 office, 43 phone). Median total number of 5-mg oxycodone tablets used was higher for the office group (5 [interquartile range, 0-10]) than the phone group (0 [interquartile range, 0-2], P = 0.002). On multivariable logistic regression, women who underwent phone counseling were less likely to be in the highest third of opioid use when controlling for surgery type and county of residence (odds ratio, 0.23; P = 0.012; 95% confidence interval, 0.07-0.72). Daily pain scores and nonopioid medication use (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications and acetaminophen) were similar between groups (P > 0.05).
conclusionsDespite similar pain scores, women who received preoperative phone counseling before pelvic organ prolapse surgery had lower opioid utilization than those with office counseling. Further research is needed to determine the optimal method of preoperative counseling and its role in postoperative pain management.
