Application of High-Resolution Ultrasound on Diagnosing Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy.
Review in Diabetes, metabolic syndrome and obesity : targets and therapy, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is a common complication of diabetes mellitus (DM). The typical manifestation is a length-dependent "glove and sock" sensation. At present, diagnosis is mainly dependent on clinical manifestations. Since the pathogenesis is not clear, there are no effective treatment measures. Management consists mainly of glucose control, peripheral nerve nutrition, and other measures to delay the progress of the disease; early diagnosis is therefore crucial to improving prognosis and quality of life for patients with DPN. Due to the lack of obvious symptoms in 50% of patients and the low sensitivity of neuro-electrophysiology to small fibers, the missed diagnosis rate is high. High-resolution ultrasound (HRU), as a convenient noninvasive tool, has been proven by many studies to have excellent clinical value in diagnosing DPN. With the development of related new technology, HRU shows promise for the screening, diagnosing, and follow-up of DPN, which could serve as a biomarker and provide new diagnostic insights. In this paper, we review the ability of HRU to detect nerve cross-sectional area and blood flow, and echo and other image changes, and in showing the characteristics of peripheral nerve morphological changes in patients with DPN. We also explore the application of two other recent technological developments-shear wave elastography (SWE) and ultrasound scoring systems-in improving the diagnostic efficiency of HRU in peripheral neuropathy.
