Calcified Tendinitis of the Flexor Carpi Ulnaris Tendon: A Case Report.
Article in Journal of orthopaedic case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Introduction: Calcification in the tendon (Calcific Tendinitis) occurs commonly in the shoulder, but this condition can happen in other tendon sites. Calcific tendinitis of the hand and wrist occurs rarely, which causes unfamiliarity toward the disease. With the symptoms mimicking other causes, misdiagnosis often happens. This can cause ineffective and over treatment. Case Report: A 51-year-old man presented with a 2-week-pain on his right wrist with localized erythema and tenderness on physical examination. Imaging with ultrasound and X-ray shows calcification on the flexor carpi ulnaris tendon. Patient was treated with splinting for 2 weeks and NSAID for pain management and was free of pain afterwards. Conclusion: Calcific tendinitis mimics the symptoms of various causes. The ability to differentiate this entity to other differential diagnosis leads to an effective and precise treatment.
