2-Chloroprocaine vs. Lidocaine in a Patient With Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and a History of Local Anesthetic Resistance: A Case Report.
Article in Case reports in anesthesiology, 2026. 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
Patients with hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (hEDS) have a higher reported prevalence of local anesthetic (LA) resistance and obstetric complications than the general population. We describe a 33-year-old G2P0010 ASA III parturient with a history of hEDS and lidocaine resistance who presented for an anesthesia consultation in anticipation of possible neuraxial anesthesia. We surmised that performing a neuraxial procedure would require effective skin infiltration of the patient's lumbar area. A skin infiltration test revealed that 3% 2-chloroprocaine provided a much greater numbing effect than 2% lidocaine. The patient desired an unmedicated birth and ultimately delivered in this fashion. Still, our findings highlight the potential benefit of testing multiple LAs in hEDS patients to guide anesthetic planning.
