Effects of Patient-Preferred Music on Anxiety, Pain, and Quality of Recovery After Knee Arthroplasty Under Spinal Anesthesia: A Randomized Controlled Trial.
Trial report in Clinical nursing research, 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
Preoperative anxiety and pain can adversely affect recovery and satisfaction. Music is a safe, low-cost, non-pharmacological intervention that may enhance perioperative outcomes. This study evaluated the effects of patient-preferred music on anxiety, recovery, pain, satisfaction, and hemodynamics during unilateral knee arthroplasty under spinal anesthesia. In this prospective, randomized, controlled, single-blind trial, 80 patients were assigned to either a music group (Group M) or a control group (Group C). Group M listened to preferred music via headphones before and during surgery, while Group C received standard care. Anxiety (State-Trait Anxiety Inventory; state: STAI-S, trait: STAI-T), recovery (Quality of Recovery-15 [QoR-15]), pain (Numeric Rating Scale [NRS]), satisfaction, and hemodynamic parameters were measured. Minimal clinically important difference (MCID) analyses were used to assess clinical significance. Sixty-five patients (Group M: 32; Group C: 33) were analyzed. Postoperative STAI-S scores were significantly lower in Group M (
