Understanding the Multifactorial Influences on Postsurgical Pain After Rotator Cuff Repair: A Retrospective Cohort Study.
Article in Orthopaedic journal of sports medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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: The experience of chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) can vary widely among patients after rotator cuff repair (RCR). Purpose: To determine the prevalence and predictive factors of CPSP at 6 months after RCR. Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. Methods: The following assessments were conducted preoperatively and 6 months postoperatively in adult patients with RCR who had undergone primary arthroscopic RCR (N = 1987): Constant score, pain assessed on the numeric rating scale (0-10), the Subjective Shoulder Value, the Oxford Shoulder Score, and quality of life as measured by the EuroQol-5 Dimensions-5 Level (EQ-5D-5L). Patient characteristics-including age, sex, body mass index, and smoking status-and surgical factors-including the duration of surgery and the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) classification-were also reported. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to determine which variables were predictors for CPSP. Results: The prevalence of moderate to severe preoperative pain in the patients was 30.4% for CPSP. After adjusting for age, surgery duration, ASA classification, sex, and body mass index, results revealed that unique predictors for CPSP were as follows: (1) the presence of preoperative negative affect-assessed using the anxiety/depression dimension of the EQ-5D-5L (odds ratio [OR], 1.46 ( Conclusion: Patients predisposed to CPSP can be identified during the preoperative phase. Collectively, there is a call for a more in-depth assessment of biopsychosocial risk factors that could substantially influence the postoperative pain experience.
