Effect of music intervention on anxiety and pain after anatomical endoscopic enucleation of the prostate: a prospective randomized controlled trial.
Trial report in BMC urology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07255118 (Effect of Music Intervention on Anxiety and Pain After Anatomical Endoscopic Enucleation of the Prostate), which is not on this 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.

Abstract
backgroundThis prospective randomized study aimed to assess the effect of self-selected music, delivered via loudspeaker, on early postoperative anxiety and pain in patients who underwent anatomical endoscopic enucleation of the prostate (AEEP) under spinal anesthesia without sedation.
methodsAdult male patients scheduled for AEEP were randomly allocated to either a music intervention group (self-preferred music) or a control group (no music). Baseline characteristics, preoperative urethral catheter status, International Prostate Symptom Scores (IPSS), operative duration, and pre- and postoperative anxiety scores (State Anxiety Inventory, SAI) were recorded. Visual Analog Scale (VAS) was used to evaluate postoperative pain two hours after surgery.
resultsA total of 135 patients were analyzed (music group, n= 67; control group, n= 68). Baseline characteristics and operative times were comparable between groups (p>0.05). The music group had significantly lower postoperative SAI (32.0 ± 7.32 vs. 38.38 ± 11.28; p = 0.001) and VAS scores (1 [1-2] vs. 2 [1-3]; p = 0.001). The reduction in postoperative SAI compared to preoperative value was also greater in the music group (14 [10.00-21.00] vs. 7 [1.00-11.75]; p = 0.001). Music type had no significant impact on outcomes (p>0.05). In multivariate analysis, music intervention and preoperative catheterization were independent predictors of postoperative anxiety.
conclusionsSelf-selected music intervention significantly reduced early postoperative anxiety and pain following AEEP under spinal anesthesia. Given its simplicity and non-invasive nature, music may serve as an effective adjunct for enhancing patient comfort, regardless of music genre. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: NCT07255118.
