Ultrasound-guided tenotomy for lateral epicondylitis with TenJet improves physical functional and decreased pain outcomes at 1 year: a case series review.
Article in JSES international, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Background: Common extensor tendinopathy is a common cause of lateral elbow pain. Ultrasound-guided minimally invasive tenotomy (MIT) has been utilized successfully as a treatment for several years, but the use of TenJet device has not been well described. Purpose: To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of MIT with TenJet who failed nonsurgical management of common extensor tendinopathy in an outpatient setting. Methods: A total of 100 patients with common extensor tendinopathy who failed conservative treatment underwent ultrasound-guided MIT with TenJet device in the outpatient setting at a single institution. All 100 patients prior to MIT underwent diagnostic musculoskeletal ultrasound showing common extensor tendinosis. The findings were interpreted by a fellowship-trained and board-certified musculoskeletal radiologist. Patients were evaluated with the Oxford Elbow Score prior to the procedure and at 1-year follow-up. Exclusion criteria included prior corticosteroid injection within the past 6 weeks of the MIT intervention, active local or systemic infection, complete full thickness tear of the common extensor tendon, and pregnancy. Results: Oxford Elbow Score had a statistically significant difference in baseline to 1 year ( Conclusion: MIT with TenJet is a safe, effective, and well-tolerated treatment for common extensor tendinopathy.
