Review in Radiologie (Heidelberg, Germany), 2026. 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
backgroundBack pain, which has a high prevalence, is associated with substantial individual and socioeconomic burden. Mechanical irritation and local inflammation promote edema, neovascularization, and pain chronification.
objectiveThis article aims to provide an overview of the possible indications for and the performance of periradicular therapy (PRT), epidural injection therapy, facet joint infiltration, and facet denervation.
methodsThis clinical narrative review presents workflows of the different techniques, the medications used, and potential complications. This paper does not constitute a systematic scientific review.
conclusionInterventional pain therapies are useful after unsuccessful conservative treatment and in the presence of an appropriate clinical-imaging correlation. PRT is used for radicular symptoms. Epidural injection therapy, in contrast, is suitable for bilateral and multisegmental complaints. Facet joint infiltrations are used therapeutically for pain management and may also be employed diagnostically prior to denervation procedures.
