Pearls & Oy-sters: Case of Atypical Peripheral Nerve Findings Following Paclitaxel for Breast Cancer.
Article in Neurology, 2023. 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
Neuromuscular ultrasound (NMUS) is a valuable tool in establishing a diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) and can be particularly helpful in patients with clinical CTS but normal nerve conduction studies (NCSs). This case involves the uncommon presentation of enlarged median nerves on NMUS with normal NCS in a patient with breast cancer who developed chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy and CTS after taxane treatment. This case demonstrates that CTS should not be excluded based on electrodiagnostic studies alone, and comorbid CTS should be considered in patients receiving neurotoxic chemotherapy, even in the setting of normal NCS.
