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: To evaluate the short-term efficacy and safety of ultrasound-guided phenol PENG Block for the management of chronic pain of degenerative joint origin at Bouaké University Hospital. Methods: Prospective study conducted over six months (July-December 2024), including patients (>16 years old) suffering from painful degenerative joint diseases (EN > 6/10). Epidemiological, clinical and therapeutic variables were analysed. A statistical analysis using Student's t-test (p < 0.05) assessed pain reduction after phenol PENG Block. Results: Twenty-six patients were included (mean age: 43 years). The majority were women (73.1%), who were overweight (38.5%) or obese (23%). Coxarthrosis was the most common indication (42.4%). Phenol PENG block resulted in a significant reduction in pain, with a decrease in the average EN from 8 to 2 (p = 0.00). No complications were reported. Conclusion: Ultrasound optimises the accuracy and safety of PENG block, making its use essential. The development of cooperation strategies promotes better management of this technique.
