Spinal Cord Stimulation Alleviates Chronic Peripheral Neuropathic Pain Due to Peripheral Nerve Injury: A Case Report.

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
Refractory neuropathic pain can be treated using opioids. We present a case of spinal cord stimulation (SCS) to ameliorate neuropathic pain and successfully stop opioid administration in a patient with median nerve injury. A woman presented with median nerve neuropathy. The intractable pain required opioids, with the dosage being gradually increased due to insufficient analgesia. The patient underwent nerve blocks and rehabilitation to reduce the opioid dosage, followed by SCS, which allowed the patient to stop opioid intake. Combined treatment modality involving nerve blocks, rehabilitation, and SCS improved the patient's pain score and quality of life.
