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

Objectives A multimodal approach to pain management, including potential interventional techniques, is suggested to achieve adequate pain control. This study discusses the techniques and medications employed to manage pain in pediatric oncology patients. Methodology This study included 90 patients under 18 years of age who underwent pain management in the algology clinic between 2002 and 2020. From the algology follow-up records, the following data were recorded: demographic information, follow-up time, cancer diagnosis and stage, cause and location of pain, systems involved, duration and intensity of pain, analgesic and adjuvant drugs prescribed, routes and duration of drug administration, complications, interventional procedures if performed, "pain intensity" scores prior to and following treatment, and daily and total analgesic consumption of the patients. Results The mean age was 11.4±4.1 years (min-max: 2-17). Leukemia and lymphoma were the most frequently diagnosed (30%). Of the 31 features identified in the staging, 27 (87.1%) were stage 4 at admission. The causes of pain in children were neoplasms in 81.2% (
