[Hypoxemia, pleural and pericardial effusion after splanchnic neurolysis. A case report.]
Article in Revista de la Facultad de Ciencias Medicas (Cordoba, Argentina), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: Alcohol neurolysis of splanchnic nerves is a valuable tool for treating visceral intractable pain from the upper abdomen in cancer patients. It is a safe and effective procedure, yet not risk free. It’s most common adverse effects are mild and self-limited. Materials: We present a case of a 72-year old woman suffering from pancreatic cancer with intractable pain despite opioid use. Alcohol neurolysis of splanchnic nerves was indicated after hospital admission. Results: After the procedure pain was subdued, yet hypoxemia, pleural and pericardial effusion developed. Frequent causes for these events were ruled out. The patient was discharged 24 hours after with adequate pain control. Conclusions: Hypoxemia, pleural and pericardial effusion after alcohol neurolysis of splanchnic nerves is infrequent. These findings are likely to be linked to the effect of alcohol.
