1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Objective: This study aims to investigate and discuss the effect of pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block with liposomal bupivacaine (LB) on postoperative rebound pain following hip fracture in older adults. Patients and Methods: Ninety patients scheduled for hip fracture surgery were randomized into three groups: LB (liposomal bupivacaine, 30 mL), R (0.375% ropivacaine, 30 mL), and C (saline, 30 mL). MAP and HR were recorded at T1 (pre-induction), T2 (post-intervention), and T3 (skin incision). NRS scores were evaluated at 12-72 h postoperatively, along with rebound pain, quadriceps function, analgesic consumption, and adverse reactions. Results: The incidence of rebound pain was significantly lower in the LB and R groups than in the C group (p < 0.05). The AUC of NRS scores over 72 hours was significantly lower in the LB group (2.053 ± 1.258) than in the R (3.600 ± 2.087) and C (4.880 ± 2.739) groups (p < 0.0001). Hemodynamic analysis revealed significant differences in HR between T2 and T3 in all groups (LB: 77.10 ± 11.28 vs 73.77 ± 8.47; R: 79.57 ± 8.05 vs 74.00 ± 8.13; C: 80.50 ± 8.71 vs 84.13 ± 8.07; p < 0.05). MAP in the LB group differed significantly from Group C across the three time points (p < 0.05). There were no significant differences between the groups in adverse events. Conclusion: LB PENG blockade reduces rebound pain incidence post-nerve block in elderly hip fracture patients, decreases PCA demand, preserves quadriceps function, and enhances satisfaction.
