The Effect of Different Types of Music on Pain and Anxiety during Wound Care Procedures in Patients with Venous Ulcers: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

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 evaluate the effects of different types of music (instrumental Turkish music and Western music without lyrics) played during wound care on pain, anxiety, and patient satisfaction among individuals with venous ulcers.
methodsIn this randomized controlled trial, 97 patients with venous ulcers were assigned to three groups: Western music ( n = 32), Turkish music ( n = 32), and Control ( n = 33). Patients in the music groups listened to their assigned music during routine wound dressing, while all patients received individualized, evidence-based care. Pain and anxiety were measured using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory before, during, and after dressing, and patient satisfaction was assessed with the VAS post-procedure.
resultsThe mean age was 56.5 ± 8.5 years; 61% were female ( n = 59) and 39% male ( n = 38). Between-group comparisons revealed a significant effect of music on anxiety ( F (2.94) = 27.771, P < 0.001, η2 = 0.371). These findings indicate that listening to music significantly reduced anxiety levels, with Turkish music producing a stronger effect than Western music. Music had a pain-reducing effect during dressing, with Turkish music significantly lowering pain compared to the control group ( F (4.188) = 9.039, P < 0.001, η2 = 0.161). Although pain levels decreased in the Western music group, this reduction did not reach statistical significance. Patient satisfaction was also higher in the music groups ( P < 0.001).
conclusionIn this study, Turkish music was particularly effective, demonstrating greater reductions in anxiety and pain, as well as higher patient satisfaction compared to both Western music and the control group. The findings emphasize the importance of cultural characteristics and patient preference in music-based interventions; they demonstrate that music is an effective nursing intervention that can be applied independently by nurses, is low-cost, and is non-invasive.
