Back to the Future: Historic Insights and Recent Innovations in Pediatric Regional Anesthesia.
Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Pediatric regional anesthesia is evolving with new peripheral nerve blocks and techniques aimed at improving perioperative pain management. While caudal blocks have long been standard due to their simplicity and low complication rates, newer fascial plane blocks offer comparable efficacy with enhanced nerve coverage tailored to specific surgeries. Moreover, adjuncts like dexmedetomidine and dexamethasone have shown promise in prolonging block duration and enhancing post-operative pain relief and patient satisfaction. The integration of these advancements into clinical practice has yielded significant benefits, including reduced intraoperative fluid requirements, decreased reliance on opioids postoperatively, earlier initiation of enteral nutrition, lower readmission rates, shorter hospital stays, and decreased overall hospital costs. Our review underscores the technical progress and expanding literature supporting the rapid adoption of these impactful regional anesthesia techniques in pediatric care.
