Non-pharmaceutical treatments to relieve pain or reduce opioid analgesic intake and improve quality of life after total hip replacement: a meta analysis.
Review in American journal of translational research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
To reduce pain after total hip replacement (THR), researchers are interested in drug-free interventions. However, there is still a lack of consensus on their prevention efficacy. We performed a meta-analysis to evaluate the use of nonpharmaceutical interventions for postoperative pain management after THR. We searched the Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, EMBASE, Web of Science, PEDRO, and ClinicalTrials.gov databases for articles published between and 1991 and 2020. The main outcome measures were postoperative pain, opioid consumption, and quality of life (QoL). In total, 1,942 patients were studied. We found moderate evidence indicating postoperative pain relief measured by the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index Scale, with mean differences (MDs) of -0.28 (95% confidence interval [CI], -0.49 to -0.07;
