Acupoint Selection in Postoperative Ophthalmic Pain Management: A Data Mining Protocol.
Article in Journal of pain research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Postoperative ophthalmic pain not only induces anxiety and depression among patients, but also prolongs the recovery cycle. However, the management of postoperative pain in ophthalmology is still not standardized. The effectiveness of acupuncture in treating postoperative pain has been validated based on numerous clinical trials and meta-analysis. Our study is to conduct the first data mining analysis to identify the most effective acupoints selection and combinations for treating postoperative ophthalmic pain, inform. Methods: We will search bibliographic databases from inception to November 2023. Clinical trials evaluating the effectiveness of acupuncture therapy in the management of postoperative ophthalmic pain will be selected. Reviews, protocols, animal studies, case reports, systematic evaluations and Meta-analyses will be excluded. Primary outcome indicators will be clinical outcomes related to postoperative ophthalmic pain. Descriptive statistics will be performed in Excel 2019. Association rule analysis will be performed in SPSS Modeler 18.0. Exploratory factor analysis and cluster analysis will be performed in SPSS Statistics 25.0. Results: This study will investigate the most effective point selection and combination of acupuncture points for the treatment of postoperative ophthalmic pain. Conclusion: Our findings will provide evidence for the effectiveness and potential therapeutic prescription of acupuncture for postoperative ophthalmologic pain, helping clinicians and patients work together to make more informed decisions.
