The effect of lung-recruitment maneuver on postoperative shoulder pain in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy: a randomized controlled trial.
Trial report in Journal of anesthesia, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposeLung-recruitment maneuvers (LRM) have been shown to reduce postoperative pain after laparoscopic surgery. This study aimed to investigate the association of LRM with the incidence of shoulder pain after laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
methodsA randomized controlled study was conducted with 110 patients undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy from July 2022 to March 2023. Participants were randomized to receive either routine exsufflation or LRM at pneumoperitoneum release. The postoperative shoulder pain and abdominal pain were assessed at 1, 4, 6, 12, and 24 h after surgery using a numeric rating scale. Analgesic consumption and postoperative nausea or vomiting (PONV) were evaluated during the first 24 h after surgery.
resultsThe incidence of shoulder pain during the first 24 h after surgery was significantly lower in the LRM group compared to the control group (26.9 vs. 59.3%; P = 0.001). The median [interquartile range] score of worst shoulder pain was significantly lower compared to the control group (3 [2-3] vs 4 [3-5.5]; P = 0.003). Participants in the LRM group showed reduced abdominal pain at rest at 4 and 24 h after surgery, and experienced significantly lower intensities of abdominal pain during mobilization at all time points over 24 h after surgery. There were no significant differences in opioid consumption or the incidence of PONV between the groups.
conclusionsLRM reduces both the incidence and intensity of shoulder pain during 24 h after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Additionally, LRM was associated with reduced intensity of abdominal pain during mobilization over the study period.
