1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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 present a case of regional analgesia utilized in a 43-year-old woman with Bernard-Soulier syndrome (BSS) undergoing a Nuss procedure for the treatment of pectus excavatum. BSS is an extremely rare bleeding disorder (1:1,000,000) associated with prolonged bleeding times, giant platelets, and thrombocytopenia. Due to the rare incidence and heterogeneity in bleeding predisposition due to BSS, there is no clear consensus in management of such cases, and to our knowledge, utilization of regional analgesic techniques have not been described in the literature. The Nuss procedure is considered "minimally" invasive, and epidural analgesia is frequently utilized at our institution. Due to our patient's heterozygous presentation of BSS and mild history of bleeding, a modified perioperative multimodal analgesic plan was chosen which included bilateral single injection paravertebral nerve blocks (PVBs). Our report describes successful utilization of PVBs in a patient with BSS and our approach to this rare hereditary condition.
