Ultrasound-guided peripheral trunk block technique: A new approach gradually stepping onto the stage of clinical anesthesia.
Review in Ibrain, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
In recent years, with the continuous development and validation of new visualization, the ultrasound-guided peripheral trunk block becomes more mature and has a more extensive and broader implementation scope in clinical anesthesia. Based on this, we reviewed and summarized the literature on peripheral trunk nerve block include: paraspinal block, retrolaminar block, plane block of erect spinal muscle, transverse convex to pleural midpoint block, block of the trapezius muscle and anterior serratus muscle, anterior serratus muscle block, thoracic nerve block, abdominal transverse fascia block, type-I block of quadratus lumborum, type-II block of quadratus lumborum, type-III block of quadratus lumborum, block of the sheath of rectus abdominis. This paper reviews the ultrasound-guided peripheral trunk block technique, including development history, anatomic basis, implementation methods, advantages and disadvantages of nerve block technique, and describes the bottleneck and difficulties of nerve block technique at present.
