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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveIn this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of 2 different dosages of tenoxicam in the prevention of propofol injection pain.

methodsA total of 120 patients between the ages of 20-50 years who were scheduled for elective surgery were included in this prospective. Patients were randomly divided into 3 groups. Group 1 received 5 mL saline, group 2 received 10 mg tenoxicam in 5 mL saline, and group 3 received 20 mg tenoxicam in 5 mL saline intravenously as a pretreatment. Venous occlusion was applied for 60 seconds with a rubber tourniquet after the injection was completed. After injecting propofol, the pain at the injection site of the patient was questioned according to the Verbal Rating Scale.

resultsThe overall pain incidence during propofol injection was 85% in group 1, 75% in group 2, and 60% in group 3 (P = .039). While there was no significant difference between groups 1 and 2 (P=.264), there was a significant difference between groups 1 and 3 (P=.012). Moreover, there was a significant decrease in the level of severe pain in group 3 compared to group 1 (P=.008). There was no significant difference between the groups in terms of mild and moderate pain levels (P > .05).

conclusionsWe found that 20 mg of tenoxicam pretreatment was effective in reducing the incidence and severity of propofol injection pain compared to the control saline group, but the 10 mg dose did not significantly reduce the injection pain.
