The Comparative Effects of Cryotherapy and Music Therapy on Pain and Anxiety in Vascular Access Procedures: A Randomized Clinical Tria.

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
purposeThe fear of vascular access procedures reduces patient cooperation, often resulting in unsuccessful venipuncture attempts and prolonging the overall treatment process. Because people getting venipunctures in medical and surgical settings usually feel pain and anxiety, the goal of this study was to look at and compare how cryotherapy (CT) and music therapy (MT) affected the levels of pain and anxiety (P&Amp;A) these people felt.
methodThis research utilized a randomized controlled trial methodology. The target population consisted of patients hospitalized in the medical-surgical wards of Valiasr Hospital, Arak, Iran. One hundred twenty patients were purposively selected and then randomly assigned (using block randomization) to one of four groups: MT, CT, combination therapy (COBT), or control. P&Amp;A levels were assessed using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and the Visual Anxiety Intensity Scale (VAIS). Data were analyzed utilizing version 21 of the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software. Descriptive statistics, including mean, standard deviation, frequency, and percentage, along with inferential statistics, such as the analysis of variance test, paired t-test, and Chi-square, were employed for analysis.
findingsThe findings revealed a statistically significant disparity in pain levels among the four groups (P<0.001). The mean pain score in the COBT group (1.66±1.66) was lower than that of the MT group (2.03±1.84) and the CT group (2.43±2.16). However, the three intervention groups (MT, CT, and COBT) showed no notable difference from a statistical perspective (P>0.05). Additionally, a statistically substantial distinction in anxiety levels was observed among the four groups after the study (P<0.05). Both the COBT and MT therapies markedly diminished anxiety severity in comparison to the control group.
conclusionThe study results demonstrated that MT, CT, and COBT are effective in alleviating P&Amp;A in patients having venipuncture procedures. These interventions may serve as valuable complementary or alternative approaches in clinical practice.
