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

Superior cluneal neuralgia (SCN) is a distinct cause of lower back and/or leg pain related to pathology of the superior cluneal nerve. When assessing a patient with low back pain (LBP), superior cluneal neuralgia is frequently misdiagnosed. The pathophysiology of SCN ranges from myofascial compression brought on by aberrant muscle tone to direct iatrogenic injury or trauma. In this technical report we will discuss the anatomy of superior cluneal nerve, superior cluneal neuralgia, current treatment modalities, and a novel approach to peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) lead placement via a cadaver demonstration for SCN.
