Identifying neuropathic pain and the effects of perioperative psychological intervention in patients with gastric cancer.
Article in World journal of gastrointestinal surgery, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundPatients with gastric cancer (GC) often experience complex pain, including a neuropathic component, which may influence their response to perioperative interventions.
aimTo identify neuropathic pain (NP) components in patients with GC and evaluate the clinical efficacy of perioperative psychological interventions.
methodsThe study comprised 100 patients with GC who underwent surgical treatment at Jiujiang No. 1 People's Hospital between April 2022 and April 2025. Using randomized number tables, the participants were allocated into either an observation (
resultsOn postoperative day 7, both groups exhibited higher Numeric Rating Scale scores for resting and activity pain than that demonstrated on preoperative day 1 (
conclusionEffective identification of the NP component in the patients' pain, coupled with perioperative psychological interventions, significantly reduced pain intensity and NP-positivity rates. This approach improved anxiety and depressive symptoms, decreased postoperative analgesic use, accelerated early recovery, and enhanced quality of recovery.
