Targeting postoperative sleep disorders: Current advances and emerging directions in stellate ganglion block therapy.
Review in Medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 stellate ganglion block (SGB) is an extensively utilized regional anesthesia technique, integral to pain management protocols and postoperative analgesia. Its fundamental objective lies in the modulation of sympathetic nervous system activity, thereby facilitating the intricate balance of the autonomic, circulatory, endocrine, and immune systems to preserve homeostatic equilibrium. Postoperative sleep disorders (PSD), characterized by disruptions in sleep quantity and quality subsequent to surgical intervention, manifest as oscillations in the sleep-wake cycle and are indicative of postoperative neurocognitive impairments. Emerging research underscores the efficacy of SGB in mitigating PSD incidence through the targeted regulation of sympathetic ganglionic excitability and the modulation of endocrine and autonomic nervous system functions. This study offers an exhaustive appraisal of the effects of SGB on PSD, delving into the anatomical foundations of the procedure, elucidating its physiological mechanisms, and amalgamating pivotal insights derived from recent scholarly research.
