The feasibility of the posterior tibial nerve-flexor hallucis brevis pathway applied in neuromuscular monitoring: a multicentric, controlled, and prospective clinical trial.
Article in PeerJ, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
This study aimed to investigate the clinical viability of utilizing the flexor hallucis brevis as an alternative site for neuromuscular monitoring compared to the conventional adductor pollicis. Patients were recruited from three medical centers. Cis-atracurium was administered, and two monitors were employed independently to assess neuromuscular blockade of the adductor pollicis and the ipsilateral flexor hallucis brevis, following a train of four (TOF) pattern until TOF ratios exceeded 0.9 or until the conclusion of surgery. Statistical analysis revealed significant differences in onset time, duration of no-twitch response, spontaneous recovery time, and total monitoring time between the two sites, with mean differences of -53.54 s, -2.49, 3.22, and 5.89 min, respectively (
