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.

Abstract

Purpose: Opioid analgesics may delay discharge and affect postoperative quality of recovery because of their significant adverse effects, such as hyperalgesia, postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), shivering and urine retention. We aimed to compare the quality of postoperative recovery (QoR) between patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgeries with opioid-free anesthesia (OFA) and those with opioid-based anesthesia (OA). Patients and Methods: 80 adult patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy were randomly allocated to an opioid-free anesthesia group (Group OFA) or an opioid-based anesthesia group (Group OA). The primary outcome was the quality of postoperative recovery using QoR-15 scale on postoperative day 1 (POD 1) and 2 (POD 2). The secondary outcomes included the incidence of opioid-related adverse symptoms, perioperative hemodynamic data, duration of post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) stay and duration of extubation, and the incidences of hypotension and bradycardia. Results: A statistically significant difference in total QoR-15 was observed between the two groups on POD 1 and POD 2 (91.00 (90.00, 92.00) vs 113.00 (108.25, 115.00), 106.00 (104.00, 112.00) vs 133.00 (130.00, 135.00), Conclusion: We concluded that the quality of recovery of patients receiving OFA was superior to those receiving OA after laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
