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

Context: Patients with endogenous hypercortisolism experience glucocorticoid withdrawal syndrome (GWS) after surgery. Meditation may be an effective intervention to alleviate the severity of GWS. Objective: To determine the acceptability of a portable, wearable electroencephalography device for guided meditation (MUSE headband) and the impact of MUSE use on GWS and quality of life 12 weeks postsurgery. Methods: We conducted a single-center prospective cohort study of adults with endogenous hypercortisolism undergoing curative surgery from 2019 to 2024. Patients had baseline and postsurgical assessments over 12 weeks. The study comprised patients using MUSE for ≥ 6 weeks (MUSE cohort) and patients matched by age, sex, BMI, hypercortisolism type, and glucocorticoid type at 1:4 ratio. Quality of life and GWS symptoms were assessed with AddiQoL, CushingQoL, and 36-item Short Form Health Survey mental and physical component (SF-36 MCS and PCS) questionnaires. Results: MUSE was offered to 52 patients, and 22 (42%) used MUSE for ≥ 6 weeks within 12 weeks after surgery. At baseline, compared to 88 matched subjects, 22 MUSE participants demonstrated similar prevalence of comorbidities and clinical and biochemical hypercortisolism severity, but lower AddiQoL (mean 73 vs 66, Conclusion: Postsurgical meditation intervention may improve physical symptoms and accelerate recovery.
