Running on the Edge: Rupture of the Tibialis Anterior Muscle During an Ultramarathon.
Article in Cureus, 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
A 47-year-old male ultramarathon runner presented with persistent discomfort in the anterior region of the left leg. The patient reported a snapping sensation in his left leg four weeks earlier while running an ultramarathon, followed by ecchymosis and functional impairment the next day. Physical examination revealed a palpable area of fibrosis in his anterior left leg. Ultrasound of the left leg identified a partially organized rupture of the distal third of the tibialis anterior muscle. The rupture had an extension of 36 x 10 x 27mm with associated muscle edema. The patient was treated non-surgically with a customized rehabilitation program and later returned to ultramarathon running. This case illustrates the importance of proper differential diagnosis and individualized rehabilitation programs to achieve optimum clinical and functional results.
