Atraumatic Idiopathic Compartment Syndrome Requiring Emergent Fasciotomy: A Case Report and Literature Review.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
A 42-year-old male with no past medical history presented to an emergency room with increasing pain and swelling of his left lower extremity over 48 hours with no preceding trauma. A computed tomography scan demonstrated a hematoma (20 cm × 4 cm × 10 cm) present within the gastrocnemius-soleus complex. Acute compartment syndrome (ACS) was diagnosed clinically, confirmed intraoperatively with an arterial line transducer, and treated with emergent fasciotomy. Extensive workup found no evidence of coagulopathy or source of bleeding. This case presents a patient with ACS secondary to an atraumatic gastrocnemius hematoma discovered in the emergency room with no history of coagulopathies or anticoagulation.
