Effects of Glycopyrronium Bromide as an Adjuvant Treatment in the Prevention of Nausea and Vomiting After Abdominal, Thyroid, and Breast Surgery: A Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial.
Trial report in Drug design, development and therapy, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05331651 (Effect of Glycopyrronium in Combination With Tropisetron in Anti-postoperative Nausea and Vomiting), which is not on this 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.

Abstract
Background: Effective methods for the prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting remain to be found. Building upon previous evidence, we examined whether glycopyrrolate bromide had a preventive effect on nausea and vomiting when used as an adjuvant treatment. Methods: In 11 participating hospitals, patients who were scheduled to receive gynecological (n=123), gastrointestinal (n=201), thyroid (n=93), and breast surgery (n=51) under general anesthesia and received postoperative opioids were randomly allocated to receive 4 mg dexamethasone and 4 mg tropisetron (Group C) or 4 mg dexamethasone and 4 mg tropisetron combined with 0.2 mg glycopyrrolate bromide (Group G). The primary outcome of postoperative nausea and vomiting was assessed. The secondary outcomes included the incidences of significant nausea and vomiting (defined based on a rating scale of intensity ≥ 4), vomiting, and extra intervention. Results: In total, 471 patients (234 in Group G and 237 in Group C) were included in the final analysis. The incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting in Group G was lower than that in Group C (27.8% vs 43.0%, odds rate=0.65, 95% confidence interval =0.50-0.83, Conclusion: The intravenous administration of 0.2 mg glycopyrronium bromide at the end of surgery can be an effective adjuvant treatment strategy for prevention of nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing surgery under general anesthesia and receiving postoperative opioids. Trial Registration: The Hospital Ethics Committee of the Second Affiliated Hospital, Chongqing Medical University (Approval ID: 2022-14-1) approved this study. This trial was registered with Identifier NCT05331651 on ClinicalTrials.gov.
