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

Purpose: The present study aimed to explore the effects of continuous sacral block on the postoperative pain of children and the satisfaction of the nurses in post-anesthesia care unit (PACU). Also, the influence of the modified protocol of continuous sacral block was investigated. Patients and Methods: A total of 60 children undergoing laparoscopic surgery were randomly divided into two groups: GI and GC groups. The general anesthesia was induced with midazolam, propofol, sufentanil and succinylcholine in both groups. In addition, the patients were subjected to continuous sacral block with levobupivacaine in group GC. The modified protocol of continuous sacral block was divided into three steps: comprehensive lumbar and sacral vertebral canal scanning by ultrasound, catheterization and administration. The EVENDOL pain scales and pediatric anesthesia emergence delirium scales of the children were evaluated at 5 min after extubation (T Results: After ultrasonic scanning, one patient in group GC was excluded due to the sacral hiatus atresia, which might lead to failure of catheterization. Data of 59 patients were collected for statistical analysis. Compared to the GI group, the EVENDOL scores and the pediatric anesthesia emergence delirium scales were reduced at T Conclusion: Based on the modified protocol, continuous sacral block provides reliable and safety analgesia for children undergoing laparoscopic surgery, thereby improving the satisfaction of PACU nurses.
