Intra-neural ganglion cyst of the lateral dorsal cutaneous nerve: an uncommon cause of lateral ankle pain.
Review in Journal of ultrasound, 2020. 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
introductionAn intra-neural ganglion cyst of the lateral dorsal cutaneous branch of the sural nerve is rare, with only a few cases reported in the literature. MATERIALS AND
methodsWe carried out a retrospective investigation of patients with an intraneural ganglion cyst of the lateral dorsal cutaneous nerve.
resultsWe present a case series of four patients with intra-neural ganglion cysts of the lateral dorsal cutaneous nerve, the distal continuation of the sural nerve at the lateral aspect of the foot.
conclusionIntra-neural ganglion cysts of the lateral dorsal cutaneous nerve are rare. They represent a relatively uncommon source of lateral ankle pain, which can easily be diagnosed with ultrasound (US) and magnetic resonance imaging and managed effectively with US-guided aspiration or surgical excision.
