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
introductionNeuralgic amyotrophy (NA) or Parsonage Turner syndrome is a clinical syndrome characterized by sudden attack of neuropathic pain, motor weakness and sensory loss that could be more or less clinically present. Different interpretations regarding the differential diagnosis, symptoms, cause and treatment were given till now.
aimWe report our experience with a 66-year-old male who had a sudden pain attack and palsy in shoulder region, without sensory loss, and associated calcific tendinitis of rotator cuff and degenerative changes in cervical spine. CASE REPORT: Patient came to our hospital with strong pain in shoulder area and signs of frozen shoulder. Active abduction and anteflexion was only to 30 degrees. He experienced the intense pain with visual analogue scale (VAS) 10/10 a night before, during his sleep. No trauma. Neurontin (gabapentin) was given to the patient. After 4 days, he felt better with abduction and anteflexion to 90 degrees. After 2 weeks VAS was 3/10, abduction and anteflection to 100 degrees.
conclusionNeuralgic amyotrophy (NA) is a self-limiting inflammatory disorder usually with idiopathic etiology. The condition
