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
introductionPerioperative sleep disorders constitute a recognized risk factor for multiple postoperative complications. Although dexmedetomidine (DEX) has been clinically employed to enhance perioperative sleep quality, its optimal administration protocol for postoperative sleep improvement remains undetermined.
aimThe aim of this study was to comparatively evaluate the therapeutic effect of distinct perioperative DEX administration strategies on postoperative sleep quality in patients undergoing elective gastrointestinal tumor resection via laparoscopy. MATERIALS AND
methodsA total of 48 patients undergoing laparoscopic gastrointestinal resection between September 2024 and January 2025 were enrolled and randomly allocated to the intraoperative continuous DEX infusion group (group I; n = 24) and the group with DEX added to postoperative intravenous analgesia (group P; n = 24) using a double-blind method. Sleep quality was assessed using the Numerical Rating Scale during the first 3 postoperative days. A comparative analysis of intergroup differences in postoperative sleep quality was performed.
resultsOut of the 48 randomized participants, 47 were included in the analysis, as 1 patient from group P withdrew informed consent postoperatively. Baseline data were balanced between the 2 groups. In comparison with group I, on postoperative day 1, group P exhibited considerably higher sleep quality scores (
conclusionsAs compared with intraoperative continuous DEX infusion, addition of DEX to postoperative analgesia in laparoscopic gastrointestinal tumor surgery has better outcomes with regard to sleep quality on postoperative day 1. These findings suggest potential advantages of postoperative DEX administration in perioperative management.
