Meta-analysis of the traditional Chinese medicine care model in relieving postoperative pain in patients with anorectal diseases
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Objective: To explore the effect of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) nursing on relieving postoperative pain in patients with anorectal diseases. Method: Three English and three Chinese databases (PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, the China National Knowledge Internet, Wanfang Data and the China Science and Technology Journal Database) were systematically searched for case-controlled or prospective studies evaluating the impact of TCM nursing on postoperative pain in patients with anorectal diseases from the date of library construction until June 20, 2022. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale was adopted to evaluate the quality of the observational studies. The effect of TCM care on pain based on the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), the effective pain relief rate, the wound healing time and the length of hospital stay were systematically analysed. Result: After a systematic search and screening, a total of 15 documents were included in this study. The systematic evaluation showed that TCM care reduced the VAS score (mean difference (MD): 1.15（95 % Confidence Interval (CI): 1.96, -1.06; P < 0.00001) compared with conventional postoperative care methods. As TCM nursing time increased, there was a trend towards decreased VAS scores. Furthermore, TCM care was effective in providing pain relief (OR: 4.78; 95 % CI: 2.93,7.79; P < 0.00001) and reducing wound healing time (MD: 4.44; 95 % CI: 5.60, -3.27; P < 0.00001) and length of hospital stay (MD: 4.87; 95 % CI: 5.93, -3.82; P < 0.00001). Conclusion: Traditional Chinese medicine nursing has a positive effect on the postoperative clinical results of patients with anorectal diseases, especially in relieving postoperative pain. The effect of traditional Chinese medicine nursing in relieving short-term postoperative pain in patients with anorectal diseases is obvious. However, there is no uniform standard for TCM nursing projects, which may lead to heterogeneity.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
