1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Femoral nerve palsy is a rare, but significant complication following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for conditions such as myocardial infarction. We present a case of a 61-year-old male patient who presented for cardiac rehabilitation following an emergent PCI procedure for cardiac arrest secondary to ST-elevation myocardial infarction. He later developed right lower extremity weakness and severe neuropathic pain on arrival to the acute rehabilitation unit. After physical examination and electrodiagnostic studies, he was determined to have a right femoral nerve neuropathy. This case report highlights the clinical course, physical examination/electrodiagnostic findings, and subsequent pain management of femoral nerve palsies.
