[Arthroscopic debridement of the extensor carpi radialis brevis].
Review in Orthopadie (Heidelberg, Germany), 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
Surgical treatment of lateral epicondylitis is reserved for patients who, despite extensive conservative therapy, do not experience satisfactory relief of symptoms. As an alternative to the open procedure, arthroscopic debridement of the extensor carpi radialis brevis (ECRB) muscle is a simple and standardized procedure. The arthroscopic approach also enables the additional treatment of intra-articular pathologies such as loose bodies or osteochondral lesions. After diagnostic arthroscopy, the attachment of the ECRB is visualized via the anteromedial portal, so that under visual control the debridement of the tendon fibers of the ECRB and its bony insertion site can be performed via the anterolateral portal. Postoperatively, there is no restriction of movement of the elbow joint. The outcome after arthroscopic ECRB debridement described in the literature is equivalent to that of other surgical techniques.
