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

Cubital tunnel syndrome is a common compressive neuropathy in the upper limb. When nonoperative management has failed to sufficiently improve the condition, various surgical techniques including in situ decompression and ulnar nerve anterior transposition have been undertaken to decompress the nerve, and these can be performed via open or arthroscopic assisted approaches. With open surgery or arthroscopic surgery, good clinical results have been reported. We describe a technique of all-arthroscopic medial bi-portal ulnar nerve release with an anterolateral portal for transient nerve retraction and transposition. This technique allows for a more complete release and maximum protection of the ulnar nerve while reducing surgical scars, relieving postoperative pain, and shortening the recovery time.
