The relationship of ulnar variance with pathologies detected by magnetic resonance imaging in patients with chronic or subacute wrist pain.
Article in PeerJ, 2025. 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
Background: This study aims to determine whether ulnar variance (UV) types are associated with chronic or subacute ulnar-side wrist pain using 3 Tesla (T) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and to investigate potential relationships between UV, clinical data, and MRI-detected findings. Methods: This retrospective study included patients who presented with ulnar-side wrist pain for at least one month and underwent 3T MRI between January 2020 and October 2023. All demographic and clinical data, wrist radiography, and MRI images were obtained from computerized records. The patients were classified as having neutral-UV, negative-UV, and positive-UV. Results: In total, 272 patients were included in the analysis. Mean age was 40.57 ± 13.18 years and 63.60% ( Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between UV changes and ulnar impingement syndrome, ulnar impaction syndrome, and TFCC tears, which can be easily detected by MRI. The previously reported relationships between UV, sex, and other pathologies were not supported by our findings.
