Effect of Perioperative Music Therapy with Intraoperative Playback and Postoperative Guided Listening on Procedural Comfort in Patients Undergoing Cerebral Digital Subtraction Angiography.

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
objectiveThis study aims to analyze the impact of perioperative music therapy (including intraoperative playback and postoperative guided listening) on procedural comfort in patients undergoing cerebral digital subtraction angiography (DSA).
methodsA retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinical data of 145 patients who underwent DSA at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical University between January 2024 and October 2025 were reviewed and categorized based on the administration of perioperative music therapy. Seventy-three patients receiving standard DSA were assigned to the conventional group, while 72 patients receiving DSA plus immediate music therapy were assigned to the music group. The primary outcome measure was comfort level assessed by the Kolcaba General Comfort Questionnaire (GCQ). Secondary outcomes included procedure-related metrics, hemodynamic parameters, anxiety and depression status [State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) and Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II)], as well as complication rates.
resultsNo significant differences were found between the groups in terms of either procedure duration or hospital stay ( P > 0.05). A significant group × time interaction was observed for postoperative Visual Analogue Scale scores ( P < 0.05), with the music group reporting lower pain at all time points ( P < 0.05). Post-procedure GCQ scores increased in both groups, with significantly higher scores observed in the music group ( P < 0.05). Hemodynamic analysis revealed a significant group × time interaction ( P < 0.05); at 30 min, the music group exhibited smaller increases (Δ 1 ) in heart rate, respiratory rate, and mean arterial pressure ( P < 0.05), and at the end of the procedure, all parameters were closer to baseline (smaller absolute Δ 2 , P < 0.05). At discharge, STAI and BDI-II scores were significantly lower in the music group ( P < 0.05). No significant difference was found in complication rates (6.85% versus 2.78%, P > 0.05).
conclusionPerioperative music therapy for patients undergoing DSA is associated with more stable hemodynamics, greater comfort, lower pain levels, and reduced anxiety and depression, without an increased complication risk.
