Ultrasound-guided supine lateral CAPS (crosswise approach to popliteal sciatic) block for below-knee surgeries in high-risk patients: A retrospective case series.
Article in Indian journal of anaesthesia, 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
Ultrasound (US)-guided popliteal sciatic nerve block (PSNB) with a femoral nerve block (FNB) provides adequate surgical analgesia for below-knee (BK) debridements and amputations. This retrospective review of 16 American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status III and IV patients describes a US-guided distal transverse (crosswise) approach to perform supine lateral PSNB (CAPS) with FNB with the limb in the neutral position. The median visibility score was 4. The median block performance time was 8 min. The median time to achieve sensory and motor block was 20 and 25 min, respectively. CAPS block with FNB is a reliable combination for BK amputation and debridement.
