1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Purpose: To evaluate the effects of deep neuromuscular blockade (D-NMB) versus moderate NMB (M-NMB) on postoperative pain and chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) in patients undergoing laparoscopic gynecological surgery. Patients and Methods: Seventy-two patients scheduled for laparoscopic uterine or adnexal surgery were randomly assigned to Group D (D-NMB, post-tetanic count 1-2) or Group M (M-NMB, train-of-four count 1-2). Postoperative pain was assessed using the visual analogue scale (VAS) at multiple time points. Surgeon satisfaction score (SRS), opioid consumption, Quality of Recovery-15 (QoR-15) score, and CPSP incidence at 3 and 6 months were compared. Results: The VAS score at 0.5 hours postoperatively was significantly lower in Group D than in Group M (4.18±1.40 vs. 5.42±1.61, P=0.001). Postoperative opioid consumption and the proportion requiring additional analgesia were significantly reduced in Group D (P=0.011 and P=0.019, respectively).SRS and QoR-15 scores were significantly higher in Group D (P<0.001 and P=0.022, respectively). No significant differences were observed in CPSP incidence or adverse reactions between the two groups. Conclusion: D-NMB improves early postoperative pain control, reduces opioid requirements, and enhances surgeon satisfaction and early recovery quality without increasing adverse events, but does not reduce CPSP incidence.
