Beyond the Pericapsular Nerve Group (PENG) Block: A Narrative Review.
Article in Turkish journal of anaesthesiology and reanimation, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
The pericapsular nerve group block shows promising results in providing pain relief with a potential motor-sparing effect in hip fracture patients. In this narrative review, we analyze the published articles, and we describe the structures achieved when performing the block. We conducted a literature search to identify the articles performing the pericapsular nerve group block, in the adult or paediatric population, from November 1, 2018, to May 15, 2021. Of the 68 selected articles, 38 were considered eligible, including 1 double-blinded randomized comparative trial, 4 observational studies, and 33 case series and case reports. The technique was described in both acute and chronic pain settings, mainly performed as single shot. All studies described effective analgesia. Quadriceps weakness was experienced in some patients. It has been described as easy to perform and has a low rate of complications. It lacks, however, adequately powered randomized controlled trials to assess its clinical value and efficacy.
