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.

Abstract
Tympanoplasty is a commonly performed surgical procedure done by Otorhinolaryngologist for treatment of chronic suppurative otitis media. Postoperative period requires the use of analgesics which are given regularly. The study aims to assess the efficacy of a single dose of preemptive pregabalin in decreasing postoperative pain after postauricular type 1 tympanoplasty. This randomized prospective study was carried out in a tertiary care hospital between July 2017 and April 2018. A total of 60 patients were divided into two groups of 30 each. This study analyzed the effect of single preoperative use of pregabalin 150 mg oral 1 h before type 1 postauricular tympanoplasty for postoperative pain as a VAS (visual analogue scale) score and requirement of rescue analgesia and results were compared with the placebo group. Pain scores (VAS score) was significantly lower in the pregabalin group as compared to the placebo group at 6, 12, 24, and at 48 h. Rescue analgesia requirements were also lower in the pregabalin group than the placebo group. Preemptive use of a single dose of oral 150 mg pregabalin reduces postoperative pain and rescue analgesic requirement in patients undergoing type 1 tympanoplasty.
