Experience and Management of the Adverse Effects of Analgesics After Surgery: A Pediatric Patient Perspective.
Article in Journal of patient experience, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 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.

Abstract
After surgery, the adverse effects (AEs) of analgesics are common and critical factors influencing the postoperative experience of pediatric patients. Inadequate management of AEs has been found to prolong hospital stay, increase readmission rates and decrease satisfaction with care. The aim of this qualitative descriptive study was to better understand the AEs of analgesics from the perspective of adolescent patients with idiopathic scoliosis after spinal surgery. A total of 7 patients participated in the study. Semistructured interviews were conducted at discharge and 1 week after discharge. Transcribed data were analyzed using qualitative content analysis and themes were identified. Overall, participants most frequently reported gastrointestinal and cognitive AEs, with constipation being the most persistent and bothersome. The pediatric participants used a combination of 3 strategies to mitigate analgesic AEs, namely pharmacologic, nonpharmacologic, and reduction of analgesic intake. Participants demonstrated a lack of understanding of AEs and involvement in their own care. Future studies should be conducted to evaluate the efficacy of nonpharmacological strategies in managing analgesic AEs for pediatric patients after surgery.
