Rapid Detecting Brachial Plexus Injury by Point-of-Care Ultrasonography.
Article in Journal of medical ultrasound. 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
Brachial plexus injury (BPI) is regarded as one of the most devastating injuries of the upper extremity. Brachial plexus neuropathy can have a high morbidity by seriously affecting the motor function and sensation of upper limbs with loss of activities of daily living. The use of computed tomography myelogram and/or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) assessing brachial plexus offers valuable details including the location, morphology, and severity of preganglionic and postganglionic injuries during the preoperative period. High-field-strength MRI with specific coil and specialized MRI sequences might be not available in every emergency setting and is time-consuming. Point-of-care ultrasonography (POCUS) comes in handy and offers good image resolution of muscles and nerves that makes early detection of neuromuscular injury possible. Here, we present a case report of BPI that POCUS provides indirect evidence of cervical root injury and expedite time to MRI.
