Paravertebral block for surgical anesthesia of percutaneous nephrolithotomy: Care-compliant 3 case reports.
Article in Medicine, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
backgroundParavertebral block is often used to provide postoperative analgesia after renal surgery. In this case-series report, we present our experience with 3 patients in whom percutaneous nephrolithotomy was performed successfully under ultrasound-guided 3-segment lumbar-thoracic paravertebral block. CASE SUMMARY: Three patients were scheduled for percutaneous nephrolithotomy. All 3 patients were high-risk cases for both general and neuraxial anesthesia. After due deliberation and with the consent of patient and his family, ultrasound-guided paravertebral block was performed. Seven to 10 mL of 0.5% ropivacaine was injected at T10/T11, T11/T12, and T12/L1 paravertebral place, respectively. Sensory loss to pinprick from T8 to L2 was achieved in all 3 patients 20 min after administration of block. Surgical procedures for all 3 patients were successful, and none of the patients complained of pain during the operation.
conclusionsUltrasound-guided multilevel paravertebral block may be an attractive option for anesthetic management of percutaneous nephrolithotomy in clinical practice.
