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

backgroundCatheter-related bladder discomfort (CRBD is a painful complication of intraoperative urinary catheterization after anaesthesia. We conducted this study to compare the effect of tramadol and lornoxicam for the prevention of postoperative CRBD.

methodsOne-hundred twenty patients (aged 18-60 years, ASA physical status 1-2, undergoing elective uterine surgery requiring intraoperative urinary catheterization were randomly divided into three groups with 40 patients in each group. Group T received 1.5 mg/kg tramadol, group L received 8-mg lornoxicam, and group C received normal saline. The study drugs were administered intravenously at the end of the surgery. The incidence and severity of CRBD were reported at 0, 1, 2, and 6 h after arrival at the postanaesthesia care unit (PACU).

resultsThe incidence of CRBD was significantly lower in groups T and L than in group C at 1, 2, and 6 h after surgery. The incidence of moderate to severe CRBD was also significantly lower in groups T and L than in group C at 0, 1, and 2 h after surgery. The severity of CRBD reported as mild, moderate, and severe was reduced in groups T and L compared with group C at most times after surgery. Group T had a higher incidence of nausea than group C, and there were no differences in dizziness, drowsiness, or vomit among the three groups.

conclusionsTramadol and lornoxicam administered intravenously at the end of the surgery were both effective in preventing the incidence and severity of CRBD after uterine surgery. However, tramadol increased the incidence of nausea compared with saline, but there was no difference between tramadol and lornoxicam.
