Effectiveness of ultrasound-guided pulsed radiofrequency ablation of suprascapular nerve versus local anaesthetics with steroids in patients with chronic shoulder pain: A randomised controlled trial.
Article in Indian journal of anaesthesia, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06713005 (The Clinical Efficacy of Different Durations of Suprascapular Nerve Pulsed Radiofrequency Treatment in Chronic Soulder Pain), which is not on this 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.
