Use of tramadol as analgesic alternative in Harris hawk (Parabuteo unicinctus).

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
backgroundThe Harris hawk is a bird of prey susceptible to traumatic injuries because it is useful for several purposes such as conservancy, biological control and falconry. Once received in rehabilitation centres or specialized clinics, it is necessary to provide proper analgesia.
objectivesThe aim of this study is to demonstrate the analgesic efficacy of tramadol in Harris hawks (PISADOL 50 PiSA Agropecuaria, S.A. de C.V. Calle 1 Norte, Manzana 2-25 Parque Industrial Tula Atitalaquia, Hgo, México), by the assessment of nociceptive threshold.
methodsA total of 24 adult Harris hawks were selected from a rehabilitation centre. The birds were randomly divided into four groups: control (saline solution), 5.0, 15.0 and 30.0 mg/kg of intramuscular tramadol. Nociception was produced with electrical stimuli of 9 V, applied in propatagial skin at 1, 5, 10, 20, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 180, 240, 300 and 360 min, assessing the nociceptive threshold and sedative effects produced by each treatment.
resultsNo difference was observed between control and tramadol group 5 mg/kg. At 15 mg/kg, the pain threshold increased from 20 to 240 min, with minimal sedative effects. At 30 mg/kg, there was a marked increase in pain threshold from 10 to 300 min, and sedative effects like wing and head drooping for a period of 90 min.
conclusionsTramadol can be an analgesic alternative for Harris's hawks, as it decreases the response to painful stimuli in this species when administered by intramuscular route.
