Massive Epidural Hematoma Caused by Percutaneous Epidural Neuroplasty: A Case Report.
Article in Korean journal of neurotrauma, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Percutaneous epidural neuroplasty (PEN) has been used to manage chronic back pain or radicular pain refractory to other conservative treatments, such as medication, injection, and physical therapy. However, similar to all invasive treatment modalities, it has serious complications, such as dural tears, infections, and hematoma formation. Herein, we present a rare case of an 81-year-old female patient on dementia medication who developed paraplegia 5 days after PEN. This is the first report of a poor outcome in a patient with dementia who developed paraplegia after PEN despite an emergency operation for spinal epidural hematoma.
