Effect of Comprehensive Noise Reduction Nursing on Pain Management and Quality of Life in Patients with T-tube Drainage after Choledocholithiasis Surgery.
Article in Noise & health. 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
objectiveTo investigate the effects of comprehensive noise reduction nursing on pain management and quality of life in patients with T-tube drainage after choledocholithiasis surgery.
methodsWe retrospectively analysed 170 patients who underwent choledocholithiasis surgery with T-tube drainage between January 2023 and June 2025. Patients received either conventional nursing ( n = 73) or comprehensive noise reduction nursing ( n = 97). Outcomes included postoperative pain assessed using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), sleep quality assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), stress indicators (cortisol [COR] and norepinephrine [NE]), T-tube-related complications, quality of life assessed using the 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) and readiness for hospital discharge assessed using the Readiness for Hospital Discharge Scale (RHDS).
resultsThe noise reduction group showed significantly lower VAS scores on postoperative days 1, 3 and 7 (all P < 0.05). On postoperative day 7, the noise reduction group had better PSQI scores (except sleep medication use, P = 0.307) and lower serum COR and NE levels than the conventional nursing group (all P < 0.05). T-tube-related complications were fewer in the noise reduction group (9.28% vs. 21.92%, P < 0.05). Before discharge, the noise reduction group exhibited higher SF-36 scores in most dimensions (all P < 0.05), though differences in social functioning and role-emotional were not significant. RHDS scores were also significantly higher in the noise reduction group (all P < 0.05). Sensitivity analyses confirmed the robustness of the main findings, with no significant differences in baseline characteristics or perioperative management between the two study periods. In addition, a contemporaneous subgroup analysis (patients admitted after June 2024) demonstrated consistent results across most study endpoints.
conclusionComprehensive noise reduction nursing was associated with reduced postoperative pain, improved sleep quality, fewer T-tube-related complications and stress responses and better quality of life and discharge readiness in patients after choledocholithiasis surgery with T-tube drainage.
