1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

This study aimed to confirm the hypothesis that continuous ACB (CACB) combined with a popliteal plexus block (PPB) can improve posterior knee pain, reduce nalbuphine consumption, and shorten the length of hospital stay. Patients who underwent TKA were allocated to the CACB + sham block (SHAM) or CACB + PPB groups. The primary outcome was the maximum pain score originating from the posterior knee within 4 h after TKA. Secondary outcomes included the maximum pain score originating from the posterior and anterior knees within 72 h after TKA, range of motion on postoperative day (POD) 1-3, postoperative nalbuphine consumption within 72 h of surgery, length of hospital stay, and complications. The maximum pain score of the posterior knee was lower in the CACB + PPB group than in the CACB + SHAM group within 0-12 h after surgery. Nalbuphine consumption within 24 h after surgery was lower in the CACB + PPB group than in the CACB + SHAM group. The range of motion was better in the CACB + PPB group than in the CACB + SHAM group on POD1 and 2. The length of hospital stay was shorter in the CACB + PPB group than in the CACB + SHAM group. The incidence of clinical significant nausea and vomiting was lower in the CACB + PPB group than in the CACB + SHAM group. This study found that PPB combined with CACB could relieve pain in the posterior knee within at least 12 h after TKA, reduce nalbuphine consumption within 24 h after TKA, improve the range of motion on POD1 and 2, and shorten the length of hospital stay for patients who underwent TKA.
