Surgeon-Administered Anterolateral Geniculate Nerve Block as an Adjunct to Regional Anesthetic for Pain Management Following Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.
Article in Arthroscopy techniques, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05720949 (Genicular Nerve Blocks for Arthroscopic Anterior Cruciate Knee Surgery), 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.
The trial behind it

Abstract
Regional anesthetic blockade of the adductor canal following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction has gained popularity due to theoretical benefit of improved patient experience, decreased requirement for pain medication and maintained motor function. However, this block does not cover the anterior and lateral genicular innervation to the knee, which may lead to persistent pain postoperatively. The following Technical Note details the genicular nervous system and provides rationale and technique for performing a simple surgeon-administered regional anesthetic at the completion of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction to address the anterior and lateral genicular nervous system.
