A Cadaveric Case of Palmaris Longus Agenesis and Reversal.
Article in Cureus, 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
The palmaris longus frequently exhibits anatomical variations with palmaris longus agenesis and reversal being the most prevalent. These variations are relevant clinically, as the muscle is often used during plastic surgeries for grafting tendons. They are also relevant in pathology, as hypertrophy of the reversed muscle is related to median nerve compression. In this report, we describe an unusual case in which a male cadaver-donor exhibited a right-sided palmaris longus reversal and left-sided palmaris longus agenesis. Review of the literature documents no previous co-occurrence of these anomalies. Since the muscle has relevance in a variety of contexts within medicine and surgery, reporting on a variation like this carries significant educational and clinical value.
