1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Previous authors have described the anatomy of the superior cluneal nerves with medial, intermediate, and lateral branches as they pass over the iliac crest. Prior authors describe a technique for radiofrequency of the superior cluneal nerves with needle placement walking off of the superior border of the iliac crest with needle redirection by sensory testing and a monopolar radiofrequency lesion. This is a case report of a patient with sustained pain relief after performing a radiofrequency ablation of the superior cluneal nerves utilizing a bipolar palisade technique.
