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.

2 · The registry

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

aimEarly mobilization (EM) is essential for an Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) program. This study aimed to develop and evaluate a specific early postoperative mobilization program for grade IV day surgery patients.

methodsPatients who underwent grade IV surgery at our center between January and October 2022 were divided into a control group (N = 96) and an experimental group (N = 95) using random digitization. The control group followed the standard rehabilitation guidelines, whereas the experimental group adhered to a quantitative rehabilitation approach. We compared outcomes such as time to first-in-bed and out-of-bed activities, pain scores at 6 h post-surgery, and at discharge, and overall satisfaction.

resultsThe time to first postoperative in-bed activity and time to first postoperative out-of-bed activity in the experimental group was significantly shorter than that in the control group (P < 0.05). The pain scores at 6 h postoperatively and before discharge were also significantly lower in the experimental group, with statistically significant differences (P < 0.05). No significant differences were observed in adverse events, emotional states, or overall satisfaction.

conclusionQuantitative rehabilitation guidance enhanced early recovery compared with standard protocols and maintained similar safety levels, proving to be an effective method for day surgery patients.
