Impact of enhanced recovery after surgery on postoperative pain management and functional recovery in patients with colorectal cancer.
Article in World journal of gastrointestinal surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundLimited evidence exists regarding the role of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols in optimizing pain management and functional recovery after colorectal cancer (CRC) surgery.
aimTo evaluate the impact of ERAS protocols on postoperative pain management and functional recovery in patients undergoing CRC surgery.
methodsA total of 109 patients with CRC admitted to The Third Affiliated Hospital of Jinzhou Medical University between June 2021 and June 2024 were enrolled in this study. They were divided into two groups: A control group (
resultsThe observation group exhibited significantly lower VAS scores at 72 hours postoperatively, shorter durations of maximum VAS scores, earlier recovery of functional indicators (time to first ambulation, bowel sound recovery, first anal gas discharge, and first defecation), and shorter hospitalization compared with the control group. Additionally, average sleep duration on postoperative day 3 was significantly longer in the observation group. Furthermore, the observation group demonstrated significantly improved sleep quality (lower Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index scores) and higher quality of life (higher Short Form 36 Health Survey scores across all domains) than both the baseline and control groups. The incidence of total postoperative complications was also significantly lower in the observation group than in the control group.
conclusionERAS protocols are highly effective in relieving postoperative pain, accelerating functional recovery, and improving overall clinical outcomes in patients with CRC undergoing surgery, supporting their broader clinical application.
