MINIMALLY-INVASIVE PAIN MANAGEMENT TECHNIQUES IN CANCER PAIN.
Review in Acta clinica Croatica, 2023. 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
The indication for the application of invasive procedures in the therapy of cancer pain is lack of response to opioids or patients who have side effects to opioid therapy that significantly impair the quality of life. Invasive treatment of cancer pain should not be the last resort but should be an integrative part in the treatment of cancer pain in combination with opioid therapy as a part of multimodal therapy. For visceral pain, interventional techniques represent a minimally invasive and reliable option for many diagnoses where active treatment options have been exhausted. There is evidence for the effectiveness of the celiac plexus block in pain treatment for pancreatic cancer and some upper abdominal cancers. According to research, the hypogastric neurolytic block is an option for pelvic visceral pain treatment and has proven to be more effective than oral opioid pain treatment. Recently, progress has been made with intrathecal and epidural analgesia as safe and effective therapeutic options with a positive risk-benefit ratio for cancer pain treatment over a long period of time and in home settings. Invasive procedures are a safe and effective option for cancer pain therapy, thus significantly affecting the quality of life.
