Effect of intraperitoneal infusion of ropivacaine combined with dexmedetomidine in patients undergoing total laparoscopic hysterectomy: a single-center randomized double-blinded controlled trial.
Trial report in Archives of gynecology and obstetrics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07400146 (Instillation of Bupivacaine With Epinephrine Over Diaphragm to Reduce Postoperative Shoulder Pain Following Benign Gynecologic Laparoscopic Surgery), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
purposeTo investigate the effect of intraperitoneal infusion of ropivacaine combined with dexmedetomidine and ropivacaine alone on the quality of postoperative recovery of patients undergoing total laparoscopic hysterectomy (TLH).
methodsFemale patients scheduled to undergo a TLH under general anesthesia at Fujian Maternity and Child Health Hospital were included. Before the end of pneumoperitoneum, patients were laparoscopically administered an intraperitoneal infusion of 0.25% ropivacaine 40 ml (R group) or 0.25% ropivacaine combined with 1 µg/kg dexmedetomidine 40 ml (RD group). The primary outcome was QoR-40, which was assessed before surgery and 24 h after surgery. Secondary outcomes included postoperative NRS scores, postoperative anesthetic dosage, the time to ambulation, urinary catheter removal, and anal exhaust. The incidence of dizziness, nausea, and vomiting was also analyzed.
resultsA total of 109 women were recruited. The RD group had higher QoR scores than the R group at 24 h after surgery (p < 0.05). Compared with the R group, NRS scores in the RD group decreased at 2, 6, 12, and 24 h after surgery (all p < 0.05). In the RD group, the time to the first dosage of postoperative opioid was longer and the cumulative and effective times of PCA compression were less than those in the R group (all p < 0.05). Simultaneously, the time to ambulation (p = 0.033), anal exhaust (p = 0.002), and urethral catheter removal (p = 0.018) was shortened in the RD group. The RD group had a lower incidence of dizziness, nausea, and vomiting (p < 0.05).
conclusionIntraperitoneal infusion of ropivacaine combined with dexmedetomidine improved the quality of recovery in patients undergoing TLH.
