[Moderate bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome improved by median nerve neurodynamic mobilization: a case report].
Article in The Pan African medical journal, 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 neuropathy affecting the upper limb. Several therapeutic approaches are used to treat this syndrome, including conservative treatment, often used as the first line treatment. We here report the case of a 61-year-old female patient, presenting to the Department of Clinical Neurophysiology of the Specialty Hospital, Rabat, with moderate and bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome with sensory loss confirmed by electroneuromyography (ENMG). Manual therapy, including bilateral median nerve neurodynamic mobilization, was performed. Patient´s outcome was marked by disappearance of nocturnal numbness and follow up ENMG showed a marked improvement in nerve conduction parameters. Based on this positive result, neurodynamic mobilization of the median nerve may be considered as a possible approach for the conservative treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome.
