Pericapsular nerve group block for osteoarthritis-related chronic hip joint pain: a case report.
Article in JA clinical reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundPericapsular nerve group (PENG) block has shown effectiveness for acute hip pain associated with fractures and surgery. Herein, PENG block was performed for osteoarthritis (OA)-related chronic hip joint pain. CASE PRESENTATION: A 65-year-old woman presented left hip pain. She had bilateral hip osteoarthritis that improved with medications; however, a fall resulted in left hip pain. She experienced severe pain on movements, which required walking aids. To alleviate the hip pain, a PENG block was performed under ultrasound guidance. Transient muscle weakness occurred in 2 of 5 times. After 5 blocks, she regained the ability to walk without assistive devices. Pain did not recur even after 6 months.
conclusionsRepeated PENG blocks of short-acting local anesthetics alone could be an effective pain management technique for chronic hip pain. For safety, the appropriate injection site and local anesthetic dosage must be carefully considered.
