Computed tomography-guided single celiac plexus neurolysis analgesic efficacy and safety: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Abdominal radiology (New York), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
purposeTo perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of published studies to evaluate the analgesic efficacy and safety of computed tomography (CT)-guided single celiac plexus neurolysis (CPN) with the injection of a neurolytic agent into the celiac plexus in one session (CT-guided single CPN).
methodsPubMed, the Cochrane Library, and Ichushi-Web were searched for English or Japanese articles published up to February 2022, which reported findings about patients who underwent CT-guided single CPN. The outcome measures assessed in the systematic review and meta-analysis were the pain measurement scales from 0 to 10 before and after the intervention and the rate of minor and major complications.
resultsThe pooled pain measurement scales at pre-intervention and 1- or 2-, 7-, 30-, 60-, 90-, and 180-day post-intervention was 6.72 (95% confidence interval [CI], 4.77-9.46, I
conclusionCT-guided single CPN can be performed safely and provides immediate analgesic efficacy although the amount of heterogeneity is characterized as large. Further investigation of its long-term analgesic efficacy is required.
