Postoperative Pain Exacerbation After Adenotonsillectomy Due to Oral Candida Infection?
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Post-tonsillectomy complications can include bleeding, dehydration, edema, airway obstruction, and infection. Oral candidiasis or thrush is a rare complication that can occur post-operatively. We describe a case of a 10-year-old female with oral candidiasis as a postoperative complication of bilateral adenotonsillectomy, presenting on postoperative day (POD) 7 for poor oral intake secondary to worsening odynophagia. A physical exam revealed an easily scrapable, white plaque located mainly over her surgical sites, tongue, and hard palate. Microscopic examination of tissue scrapings revealed pseudohyphae confirming the diagnosis of oral candidiasis. She was treated with seven days of topical nystatin therapy, including topical and systemic pain control with significant improvement of symptoms by POD 13 and complete resolution on POD 21.
