High-resolution ultrasound of peripheral neuropathies in rheumatological patients: An overview of clinical applications and imaging findings.
Review in Frontiers in medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Peripheral neuropathies are surprisingly common and can be associated with a number of conditions, including rheumatological diseases. Whether the co-existence of peripheral neuropathies with rheumatological disorders is coincidental or related to a common pathogenic mechanism, these disabling conditions can affect the outcome of rheumatological patients and should be targeted with specific treatment. The clinical presentation of peripheral neuropathy can be multifaceted and difficult to recognize in polysymptomatic patients. However, physicians adopting state-of-art diagnostic strategies, including nerve imaging, may improve the detection rate and management of neuropathies. In particular, a diagnostic approach relying exclusively on clinical history and nerve conduction studies may not be sufficient to disclose the etiology of the nerve damage and its anatomical location and thus requires integration with morphological studies. High-Resolution Ultrasound (HRUS) is increasingly adopted to support the diagnosis and follow-up of both joint disorders in rheumatology and peripheral neuropathies of different etiologies. In this review, the different types of nerve disorders associated with the most common syndromes of rheumatological interest are discussed, focusing on the distinctive sonographic features.
