Effect of quadratus lumborum block combined with butorphanol-based PCIA on postoperative analgesia and early recovery in patients undergoing colorectal cancer surgery.

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
objectiveTo explore the impact of quadratus lumborum block (QLB) combined with butorphanol-based patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) on intraoperative opioid use, postoperative analgesia, and recovery indicators in patients undergoing colorectal tumor surgery.
methodsA retrospective analysis was conducted on 78 patients who underwent radical resection of colorectal tumors. Based on postoperative analgesia strategies, patients were divided into two groups: the QLB combined with butorphanol PCIA group (QB group, n = 38) and the butorphanol PCIA group (B group, n = 40). Parameters compared between groups included intraoperative sufentanil consumption, postoperative Visual Analog Scale (VAS) scores, hemodynamic and respiratory indicators, recovery time, Mini-Cognitive Evaluation Scale (MESS) scores, incidence of adverse reactions, and lower limb motor function.
resultsThe QB group had significantly lower total and hourly intraoperative sufentanil consumption than the B group (P = 0.014). VAS scores were significantly lower in the QB group from 30 minutes to 6 hours postoperatively (P < 0.05). Additionally, the QB group showed more stable intraoperative heart rate (HR) and mean arterial pressure (MAP), along with higher partial pressure of end-tidal carbon dioxide (PETCO
conclusionQLB combined with butorphanol-based PCIA effectively enhances early postoperative analgesia and promotes hemodynamic and respiratory stability in patients undergoing colorectal tumor surgery, supporting its broader application for postoperative analgesia in this patient population.
