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

Neuropathic pain affects a large percentage of the U.S. population and leads to tremendous morbidity. Numerous nonsurgical and surgical treatments have been utilized to try and manage neuropathic pain with varying degrees of success. Recent research investigating ways to improve prosthetic control have identified new mechanisms for preventing neuromas in both motor and sensory nerves with free muscle and dermal grafts, respectively. These procedures have been used to treat chronic neuropathic pain in nonamputees, as well, in order to reduce failure rates found with traditional neurectomy procedures. Herein, we focus our attention on Dermal Sensory-Regenerative Peripheral Nerve Interfaces (DS-RPNI, free dermal grafts) which can be used to physiologically "cap" sensory nerves following neurectomy and have been shown to significantly decrease neuropathic pain.
