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

backgroundPain management after surgery is a challenging medical issue, and clinical research in this area has continued. This study aimed to compare the effect of Aminophylline, ketamine, and paracetamol on the pain intensity after deep vitrectomy and compare it with the control group.

methodsIn this clinical trial, 240 patients undergoing deep vitrectomy were included in the study. The protocol of the current study was approved in the Ethics committee of Isfahan University of Medical Sciences (IR.MUI.REC.1396.3.876) and this study was registered in Iranian Registry of Clinical Trials (IRCT20210919052523N1) (https://www.irct.ir/trial/58884). The patients were randomly divided into four equal groups. Twenty minutes before surgery, in the first group, 0.15 mg/kg ketamine, in the second group 1 g acetaminophen, in the third group 3 mg/kg of aminophylline, and in the fourth group, normal saline was infused in the same manner. All drugs were diluted with 100 ccs of normal saline and infused intravenously within 15 minutes. The four groups of hemodynamic variables, pain intensity, and rescue analgesic drugs were compared.

resultsThere was no significant difference between the groups based on hemodynamic variables (P>0.05). The severity of pain up to 2 hours after surgery and the rescue to analgesia in the ketamine and paracetamol groups were significantly lower than that of aminophylline and placebo.

conclusionUsing ketamine or paracetamol effectively decreases pain intensity after deep vitrectomy surgery without producing significant adverse hemodynamic changes.
