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
BACKGROUND The present study aimed to investigate the effects of implementing the Registered Nurses' Association of Ontario (RNAO) guidelines for the management of postoperative pain and the use of Jacobson's relaxation technique (JRT) in patients with bone and soft-tissue malignancy at a single center in China. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 312 patients were recruited and randomly divided into 2 groups. In the intervention group, the RNAO pain-management technique of JRT was adopted, while the control group received the standard institutional nursing management. Pain scores after the operation, according to the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) combined with the Wong-Baker Faces Pain Rating Scale and Short-Form McGill Pain Questionnaire, were compared between the 2 groups. Nursing satisfaction was compared as well. RESULTS At 6, 24, and 72 h after the operation, the NRS scores combined with the Wong-Baker Faces Pain Rating Scale in the intervention group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.001); 72 h after the operation, the Pain Rating Index, Visual Analogue Scale, present pain intensity, and total scores for the intervention group were significantly lower than those for the control group (P<0.001 for all 4 scores). The scores reported from the patients for nursing response and consequent care (P<0.001), nursing competence (P=0.029), and surgical pain-control satisfaction (P<0.001) in the intervention group were also significantly higher than those in the control group. CONCLUSIONS JRT can improve postoperative pain-control and nursing satisfaction in patients with malignant bone and soft-tissue tumors. These data suggest a benefit for application of JRT in clinical care.
