Successful epidural analgesia for a vaso-occlusive crisis of sickle cell disease during pregnancy: a case report.
Article in Journal of anesthesia, 2012. 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
We describe a 19-year-old Cameroonian primigravid young woman with sickle cell disease who was admitted to a local hospital in Cameroon where the first author performed his internship gynecology and obstetrics. She presented at 28 weeks of gestation with severe pain in her left leg caused by a vaso-occlusive crisis. As recommended, high doses of intravenous morphine were administered, but without significant pain relief. She received a single bolus injection of 5 mg morphine, followed by a continuous infusion of 0.05 mg/kg/h during 48 h. Lumbar epidural blockade with bupivacaine combined with sufentanil successfully alleviated her severe peripheral ischemic pain induced by a vaso-occlusive crisis caused by sickle cell disease. Until now, only one case report and no clinical trials have been published concerning the use of epidural analgesia for treatment of a vaso-occlusive crisis of sickle cell anemia in a pregnant woman who is not in labor.
