Ganglion Impar Neurolysis to Treat Refractory Chronic Pain From Vulvar Cancer: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Cancer pain treatment currently consists of the administration of pain medications, radiation therapy, tumor ablation as well as neurolytic plexus blocks. Neurolytic plexus blocks target both sensory afferent fibers and sympathetic fibers innervating visceral organs. Finding the right block for a specific type and location of cancer-related pain is crucial for the successful control of pain. One such example is a ganglion impar block for perineal pain. We report a case of a patient with chronic severe perineal pain from vulvar cancer and multiple surgeries, for whom a ganglion impar block followed by neurolysis provided significant pain relief.
