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

Objective: To compare the efficacy of intravenous administration of nalbuphine at different time points for postoperative analgesia and sedation in adenotonsillectomized children. Methods: Patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome scheduled for adenotonsillectomy were randomly divided into group A (patients received intravenous nalbuphine 0.2 mg/kg before anesthesia induction), group B (patients received intravenous nalbuphine 0.2 mg/kg 10 min before the end of surgery), and group C (patients did not receive nalbuphine injection). The time points for measuring outcomes were before anesthesia induction (T0), extubation (T1), and 0, 15, 30, or 45 min in the postanesthesia care unit (PACU) (T2-T5, respectively). Results: There were 40 patients in group A, 41 patients in group B and 39 patients in group C. Patients in group B had significantly lower FLACC (Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability) pain scores at T2-T5 than those in group C (all p<0.05). Patients in group B had higher Ramsay Sedation Score at T2-T4 than those in group C (all p<0.05). The proportion of patients who received remedial analgesia in the PACU in group A (17.5%, p=0.008) and group B (9.8%, p<0.001) was significantly lower than that in group C (46.2%). Conclusion: Intravenous administration of nalbuphine 10 min before the end of adenotonsillectomy in children could decrease pain intensity and increase sedation levels during the recovery period with the reduction of remedial analgesia in the PACU.
