The effects of mirror therapy with neuromuscular electrical stimulation on motor and sensory functions in patients with common peroneal nerve injury.
Article in Frontiers in neuroscience, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Background: Injuries to the common peroneal nerve often result in significant sensory and motor function loss, severely affecting patients' quality of life. Although existing treatments, including medication and surgery, provide some degree of efficacy, their effectiveness is limited by factors such as tolerance and adverse side effects. Methods: This study aims to evaluate the effects of a 4-week regimen of mirror therapy combined with neuromuscular electrical stimulation on lower limb function, muscle strength, and sensation in patients with common peroneal nerve injuries. The objective is to identify novel therapeutic strategies for lower limb peripheral nerve injuries.30 patients with Common peroneal nerve caused by pelvic fractures were selected from the Rehabilitation Medicine Department of Tianjin Hospital between July 2023 and July 2024. They were randomly divided into two groups: the neuromuscular electrical stimulation group ( Results: After 4 weeks, it was found that mirror therapy with neuromuscular electrical stimulation has a significantly better therapeutic effect on Common peroneal nerve than simple electrical stimulation therapy, particularly in terms of superficial sensation, nerve conduction velocity and ROM.
