Administration of flurbiprofen axetil and dezocine for the postoperative analgesia in patients with non‑small cell lung cancer: A randomized, controlled study.

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
Flurbiprofen axetil or dezocine monotherapy has been applied for analgesia of postoperative non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC); however, their combination is rarely investigated. Consequently, the present study aimed to explore the effect of flurbiprofen axetil plus dezocine on postoperative pain, surgical outcomes and its safety profile in patients with NSCLC. A total of 150 patients with resectable NSCLC were enrolled and randomized into three groups: i) The flurbiprofen axetil plus dezocine group (n=50), ii) the flurbiprofen axetil group (n=51) and iii) the dezocine group (n=49). A total of 50 mg flurbiprofen axetil, 5 mg of dezocine or their combination were administered intravenously 3 h prior to surgery and subsequently every 12 h until day 3 (D3) following surgery. The postoperative pain was lower in the flurbiprofen axetil plus dezocine group compared with that of the flurbiprofen axetil group at 6 h (P=0.008), 12 h (P=0.003), day 1 (D1) (P=0.013), day 2 (D2) (P=0.036) and D3 (P=0.010); in addition, it was lower in the flurbiprofen axetil plus dezocine group compared with that of the dezocine group at 6 h (P=0.010), 12 h (P=0.012) and D1 (P=0.020). Patient-controlled analgesia consumption was also lower in the flurbiprofen axetil plus dezocine group compared with that of the flurbiprofen axetil (P=0.010) and dezocine (P=0.002) groups. Furthermore, the length of hospital stay was lower in the flurbiprofen axetil plus dezocine group compared with that of the flurbiprofen axetil (P=0.008) and dezocine (P=0.048) groups, while other surgical outcomes and adverse events were similar among these three groups. Moreover, the expression of tumor necrosis factor-α was lower in the flurbiprofen axetil plus dezocine group compared with that of the dezocine group at 12 h (P<0.001), D1 (P<0.001) and D3 (P=0.033). The data indicated that flurbiprofen axetil and dezocine combination was superior to monotherapy for postoperative analgesia in patients with resectable NSCLC.
