Procedural Technique for Wide Awake Local Anesthesia No Tourniquet Injection for Endoscopic Carpal Tunnel Release.
Article in Journal of hand surgery global online, 2022. 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
Carpal tunnel syndrome is the most common upper extremity peripheral neuropathy syndrome. Treatment ranges from nonsurgical methods, including night-orthosis fabrication and corticosteroid injections to surgical management via a carpal tunnel release (CTR). Carpal tunnel release alleviates nerve compression by releasing the transverse carpal ligament, and performed as either an open CTR (OCTR) or endoscopic CTR (ECTR) procedure. However, there is no consensus on the superiority of the 2 approaches. Practitioners may be limited to 1 technique because of surgeons' comfort, access to an operating room versus a procedure room, and cost. The purpose of this article was to describe the surgical technique for wide awake, local anesthesia, no tourniquet ECTR performed in an office-based setting, which would decrease operating room demand and cost.
