[Surgical decompression of the peroneal nerve at the level of the fibular head].
Review in Operative Orthopadie und Traumatologie, 2020. 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
objectiveFunctional and sensible regeneration of deficits related to common peroneal nerve palsy. INDICATIONS: Functional deficits like foot drop, malfunctioning pronation, foot in supination and sensible deficits located at the anterior and lateral lower leg, the dorsum of the foot, the extension side of toes 1-4 and the interdigital space between toe 1 and 2, for positive Hoffmann-Tinel sign located at the fibular head and steppage gait. CONTRAINDICATIONS: Infection, spinal cord damage and spinal cord tumors with related sensitivity disorders and paralysis, advanced multiple sclerosis, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, pAVK IV, reinnervation refractory muscles with denervation >15-18 months, polyneuropathy, previous nerve lesions by direct trauma. SURGICAL TECHNIQUE: Surgery in lateral position and thigh tourniquet. L‑Shaped incision made in accordance with the marking. Nerve release by fasciotomy first proximal, then distal up to the branching. Opening of the thigh tourniquet, careful coagulation. Insertion of a Mini Redovac Drainage, subcutaneous and skin sutures. Compression bandage. POSTOPERATIVE MANAGEMENT: Full mobilization on postoperative day 1. An electric stimulation therapy can be considered after drainage removal. After suture removal physio- and ergotherapy indicated. Check ups should be performed every 3 months with clinical exams, photo and video documentation. Four months after surgery an electroneurographic exam should be done. Follow-up should be performed for 24 months.
resultsFrom 2010-2018 15 patients received decompression of the common peroneal nerve. Sensibility, functionality and subjective feeling were evaluated. In 12 patients (80%) a full recovery, in one case (6.67%) a partial recovery and in 2 cases (13.33%) no recovery was observed.
