Review in Sichuan da xue xue bao. Yi xue ban = Journal of Sichuan University. Medical science edition, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Stellate ganglion (SG), also known as the cervical thoracic sympathetic ganglion, is formed by the fusion of the inferior cervical ganglion and the first thoracic ganglia. It is responsible for transmitting sympathetic innervation to the upper extremities, head, neck, and heart. Stellate ganglion block (SGB) involves the injection of local anesthetics on or around the surface of SG, which induces a broad autonomic nerve blocking effect in the area controlled by SG. As a nerve block technique, ultrasound-guided SGB can be used to regulate autonomic nervous functions and achieve therapeutic effects of the relevant diseases by interfering sympathetic nerve activities of SG. In this article, we summarized and reviewed the research and clinical applications of ultrasound-guided SGB in regulating autonomic nervous functions, focusing on publications from the past five years. Furthermore, we discussed the prospective development in applying SGB in the treatment of diseases associated with high-altitude environment.
