Pre-injection local anesthesia does not affect experienced pain in intra-articular hip injections.
Article in World journal of orthopedics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundIntra-articular hip injections (IAHIs) are commonly used for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes but are often associated with patient anxiety and fear. The disparity between anticipated and experienced pain during IAHIs and the role of pre-injection local anesthesia in pain modulation remains unclear.
aimTo investigate the difference between anticipated and experienced pain during IAHIs and the impact of pre-injection local anesthesia.
methodsThis prospective study enrolled 60 patients undergoing IAHI, 30 receiving pre-injection superficial local anesthesia and 30 serving as a control group without pre-injection local anesthesia. Pain levels were assessed using numeric rating scales.
resultsPatients significantly overestimated anticipated pain compared to experienced pain (6.43 ± 2.48
conclusionPatients overestimate anticipated pain during IAHIs. Pre-injection local anesthesia does not reduce experienced pain.
