Hand Knob Syndrome Secondary to Ipsilateral Concomitant Carotid Fibromuscular Dysplasia and Proximal Atherosclerotic Disease.

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
One of the uncommon stroke presentations is the isolated wrist drop syndrome, caused by a stroke affecting the hand knob area, with the embolic mechanism being the most commonly identified mechanism. Here, we present the case of a 62-year-old female patient who presented with acute-onset isolated wrist drop secondary to right internal carotid artery fibromuscular dysplasia with a string of beads appearance and coexisting proximal atherosclerotic severe stenosis. The patient underwent successful carotid artery stenting. Patients with hand knob stroke may present a diagnostic dilemma and can be misdiagnosed as having peripheral neuropathy due to the absence of pyramidal signs and other symptoms of cortical involvement, leading to delayed or inappropriate treatment.
