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

Meralgia paresthetica (MP) is an entrapment syndrome of the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve characterized by tingling, numbness, itching and burning pain, and dysesthesia in anterolateral aspect of thigh. In this case report, we present a 37-year-old non-obese female with 2-month history of progressive pain and tingling on the anterolateral side of right thigh. Clinical features of patient were consistent with MP, which was confirmed via electrodiagnostic study. Subsequent abdominopelvic and transvaginal sonography revealed a mass-like lesion measuring 92 × 61 mm in right adnexa adjacent to the right ovary. Following diagnosis, the patient underwent cystectomy, resulting in immediate resolution of symptoms. This case highlights the importance of comprehensive evaluation in patients presenting with MP symptoms, including consideration of abdominopelvic pathology as a potential contributing factor.
