Orthopedic Manifestations of Hereditary Sensory and Autonomic Neuropathy IV in a 10-Year-Old Patient.
Article in The Iowa orthopaedic journal, 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
Hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy type IV (HSAN) is a rare and debilitating disorder highlighted by congenital absence of pain and anhidrosis. Orthopedic sequelae include physeal fractures, Charcot joint development, excessive joint laxity, soft tissue infections and recurrent painless dislocations, all of which often present in a delayed fashion. While there is no accepted guideline on management of these patients, several case studies have highlighted the importance of early diagnosis and cautioned against surgical intervention in these patients due to their inability to perceive pain and comply with post-operative restriction. The purpose of this case report is to present the clinical course of a patient with HSAN IV and the unique orthopedic challenges it presented. While some of her orthopedic injuries healed appropriately following treatment, others have gone on to have devastating complications and progressive joint destruction. Level of Evidence: IV.
