Time Characteristics of Shoulder Pain after Laparoscopic Surgery.
Observational study in JSLS : Journal of the Society of Laparoendoscopic Surgeons. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05334797 (The Effect of Hot Application on Shoulder Pain and Analgesic Use After Laparoscopic Upper Abdominal Surgery), which is not on this map. Cited by 14 papers.
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.

Abstract
objectiveTo explore the time characteristics of shoulder pain after laparoscopic gynecological operation.
methodsWe conducted prospective clinical observations and literature review. We studied 442 cases of laparoscopic gynecological surgery. We used a visual analogue scale to evaluate the pain of patients at different time points after operation. We searched the English literature of shoulder pain after gynecological laparoscopic surgery. The observation time points of these studies included 12-24 hours or the first day after surgery, and at least one time point before this time point.
resultsThe total incidence of shoulder pain was 68%. More than 90% of patients begin to feel shoulder pain on the first day after surgery, not on the day of surgery. 26 articles observed the severity of postlaparoscopic shoulder pain (PLSP) at different time points, of which 17 articles found that the intensity of the shoulder pain peaked at 12-24 hours or the first day after operation. DISCUSSION: The occurrence of PLSP presents obvious time characteristics. The incidence and severity of PLSP peaked on the first day or 12-24 hours after operation. To prevent and treat PLSP better, clinicians should make a more in-depth study according to the time characteristics of PLSP.
