Pain Control with Regional Anesthesia in Patients at Risk of Acute Compartment Syndrome: Review of the Literature and Editorial View.
Review in Journal of pain research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Acute compartment syndrome (ACS) is a devastating complication that can happen in almost every part of the human body, most noticeably after long bone fractures. The cardinal symptom of ACS is pain in excess of what would otherwise be expected from the underlying injury and unresponsive to routine analgesia treatment. There is paucity of literature on major analgesic management strategies including opioid analgesia, epidural anesthesia, and peripheral nerve blocks with regard to their differential efficacy and safety of pain management in patients at risk of developing ACS. The lack of quality data has led to recommendations that are perhaps more conservative than they should be, particularly when it comes to peripheral nerve blocks. In this review article, we attempt to make recommendations in favor of regional anesthesia in this vulnerable group of patients and strategies that will optimize adequate pain control and improve surgical outcome without jeopardizing patient safety.
