Connection between medial dorsal cutaneous nerve and saphenous nerve: case report.
Article in Surgical and radiologic anatomy : SRA, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purposeThere are no data on the connection of the saphenous nerve (SN), located on the medial side of the foot, with the terminal branches of the superficial fibular nerve. The aim of this study is to reveal the variation that surgeons should pay attention to for anesthesia applied in foot surgeries.
methodsIn this study, the left foot of a 70-year-old female cadaver fixed with formalin was dissected. The distance to the medial malleolus and the incision line was recorded using digital caliper to determine the reference points in the resulting variation.
resultsIt was observed that a branch from the SN, which arose from the SN and proceeded anteriorly to the upper part of the medial malleolus and continued towards the dorsum of the foot, hooked with a branch from the medial dorsal cutaneous nerve (MDCN). The branches arising from this hook were distributed on the medial edge of the foot up to the proximal metatarsophalangeal joint I. The distance of this nerve connection to the medial malleolus is 91.14 mm, and the distance to the incision line is 15.76 mm.
conclusionsIt is suggested that the case presented as an unusual SN variation, which may affect the success of local anesthesia in invasive procedures to the medial part of the foot and could be considered in the evaluation of sensory loss after anteromedial surgical approach to the ankle, should be included in the classification of the cutaneous innervation pattern of the foot.
