The Risk of Injury in Wrist Arthroscopy Portals: A Cadaveric Study.
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
During wrist arthroscopy, the wrist joint can be visualized from almost every perspective through a combination of standard dorsal and volar arthroscopic portals. This cadaveric study aims to compare all wrist portals described in terms of their safety in order to rank them according to the distance from the nearest structure at risk for arthroscopic wrist procedures. Twenty-nine cadaveric formalin-embellished upper limbs were examined. Needles were inserted at dorsal and volar portal sites to perform the measurements. During the subsequent dissection, distances were measured as the shortest possible distance from the nearest structure at risk for each portal. Safe zones were determined for all portals, and the safety classification of arthroscopic wrist portals was proposed, ranking them from the safest to the most perilous. Applying the proposed safety classification to arthroscopic practice, wrist arthroscopy can be performed with a lower risk of iatrogenic complications arising from the implementation of the wrist portals.
