Tibial neuropathy, a rare manifestation of hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsy: A case report.
Article in Heliyon, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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 neuropathy with liability to pressure palsy (HNPP) is characterized by acute, painless and recurrent mononeuropathies. Genetic testing shows PMP22 gene deletion of chromosome 17p11.2 can provide evidence for the diagnosis of HNPP. Reports on tibial neuropathy as the main manifestation of HNPP are very rare. We report a 14-year-old girl who was admitted to our hospital due to plantar foot numbness and plantar flexion weakness of her left foot. The patient had a history of lateral dorsal numbness and right foot drop when she was 3 years old. Clinical symptoms, and neurological examination demonstrated tibial neuropathy. Electromyography showed extensive peripheral nerve, including median nerve, ulnar nerve, tibial nerve and peroneal nerve, were involved. The diagnosis of HNPP was confirmed by genetic testing which disclosed a deletion of PMP22 gene. She was completely asymptomatic in one month after neurotrophic drug treatments.
