Continuous Compartment Pressure Monitoring Allows the Early Detection of Compartment Syndrome After Arterial Revascularization.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Compartment syndrome (CS) occurs in several clinical scenarios. Reperfusion injury and tissue swelling are common causes. This can occur after trauma but also is seen post revascularization of extremities. CS is a difficult diagnosis to make in a timely fashion that avoids permanent tissue damage. The treatment for CS is immediate fasciotomy, but fasciotomy is not a complication-free procedure. Previous care pathways usually resulted in fasciotomy being performed in a disproportionate number of normal legs. These false positives and prophylactic releases are costly to the health system because of protracted hospital stays and increased surgery numbers. The desirable tool for surgeons would be one that decreases false positives and negatives while ensuring a diagnosis in a timely fashion with true positives. A new technology that allows continuous pressure monitoring seems to be the best aid to make a diagnosis. We present our experience in decreasing the time to diagnosis in a CS case post revascularization despite the neurological blockade.
