Peripheral Nerve Stimulation for Treating Acute Pain Following Traumatic Fracture: A Case Report of Rapid-Onset Analgesia Without Motor Blockade.
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
Analgesia following acute traumatic fracture remains a clinical challenge. Pain relief via peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) is a promising treatment modality due to its opioid-sparing effects and rapid, reversible sensory blockade without motor blockade. We present the case of a patient who suffered a traumatic tibial plateau fracture. A popliteal sciatic PNS device was placed on postoperative day 1 following inadequate pain control. The patient reported marked pain relief, a significant reduction in morphine milligram equivalent (MME) utilization, and improved early functional recovery. The PNS lead was removed at the patient's 2-month follow-up visit without any adverse events.
