The effect of a mobile application-based music intervention on pain levels and analgesic consumption following surgery: a randomized controlled trial.
Trial report in Revista da Associacao Medica Brasileira (1992), 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
objectiveThe aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of mobile application-based musical tonalities delivered at different times of day on postoperative pain and analgesic consumption after orthopedic trauma surgery.
methodsThis randomized controlled study included 80 patients undergoing orthopedic trauma surgery at a university hospital. Tonalities (Rast, Nihavend, Neva) were delivered via an Android-based mobile application in the morning (T1), afternoon (T2), and evening (T3). Pain was assessed using the Numerical Rating Scale, and analgesic consumption was recorded.
resultsBaseline characteristics were largely comparable; however, body mass index (p=0.002) and marital status (p<0.001) differed between groups. Pain scores decreased significantly over time in both groups (p<0.001). After Bonferroni correction, baseline pain did not differ between groups, whereas post-intervention pain scores differed at all post-intervention time points (T1b, T2b, T3b; p<0.0083), with lower scores in the control group. Analgesic consumption did not differ significantly between groups (p>0.05). In robust regression analyses controlling for baseline Numerical Rating Scale, body mass index, and marital status, the intervention group showed significantly higher Numerical Rating Scale scores at all measurement times, and baseline Numerical Rating Scale was the strongest predictor of postoperative pain.
conclusionPostoperative pain decreased over time in both groups, and baseline pain level was the strongest determinant of postoperative pain perception; no significant between-group difference was observed in analgesic consumption.
