Intrathecal drug delivery for the management of pain and spasticity in adults: British Pain Society's recommendations for best clinical practice.
Article in British journal of pain, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
The British Pain Society updated their recommendations on intrathecal drug delivery (ITDD) for the management of pain and spasticity in adults. The recommendations are primarily evidence based but where necessary comprise the consensus opinion of the working group. The recommendations are accompanied by information for patients and their carers, intended to inform and support patients in their decision making. The updated guidance includes recent evidence base of ITDD use in pain and spasticity, address the issues of drug pump compatibility following the latest manufacturer and Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) recommendations as well as provide an update on the indications and complication management particularly endocrine complications and intrathecal granuloma formation.
