Effect of Thoracic Paravertebral Nerve Block on Blood Coagulation in Patients After Thoracoscopic Lobectomy: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial.
Article in Journal of pain research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
purposeUltrasound-guided thoracic paravertebral block (TPVB) has become increasingly popular for postoperative analgesia after thoracic surgery. We designed this prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to investigate the effect of TPVB on blood coagulation in patients after thoracoscopic lobectomy. PATIENTS AND
methodsSixty patients scheduled for thoracoscopic lobectomy were randomly allocated to two groups. Patients underwent ultrasound-guided TPVB with 0.33% ropivacaine (T group) or 0.9% saline (C group) at the end of the surgery under general anesthesia. Patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) was administered for both group after the surgery. The primary outcome was the thromboelastogram (TEG) parameters before anesthesia (T0), at the end of operation (T1) and in 1 day (T2) and 2 days (T3) after the operation, the second outcomes were the analgesic effect and the amount of intraoperative opioid consumption, operation time, infusion volume, blood loss and urine volume.
resultsThe visual analog scale (VAS) scores in group T were lower than group C (
conclusionTPVB is beneficial to improve postoperative hypercoagulability and promote postoperative rehabilitation of patients after thoracoscopic lobectomy.
