Peri-operative management and analgesic strategy for a patient undergoing quadruple limb amputation.
Article in Anaesthesia reports. 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
Inadequately managed amputation pain can contribute to postoperative morbidity and mortality. However, amputation pain can be challenging to manage due to its complex nature, with both central and peripheral nociceptive and neuropathic elements. Here, we present the case of a 47-year old man who developed irreversible ischaemic injuries to all four limbs following admission to intensive care with sepsis. He required quadruple amputation and we describe our approach to his peri-operative management including anaesthesia, invasive monitoring and the multi-modal approach to his peri-operative management using a combination of intravenous analgesics, bilateral brachial plexus nerve catheters and a combined spinal and epidural. The patient made a good recovery and was able to return home from a rehabilitation facility 12 months after the operation, able to undertake many tasks himself with the aid of prosthetics.
