Ultrasound-guided nerve hydrodissection for sciatic neuropathy caused by piriformis rhabdomyolysis: A case report.
Article in Joint diseases and related surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Peripheral entrapment neuropathy is a rare complication of rhabdomyolysis and lacks successful treatment. In this article, we report a case of sciatic neuropathy caused by piriformis rhabdomyolysis which was successfully treated with ultrasound-guided sciatic nerve hydrodissection. A 27-year-old male patient with left buttock pain and left lower limb weakness received ultrasound-guided nerve hydrodissection via injection of dexamethasone and 5% dextrose water into the area surrounding the left sciatic nerve. After injection, the patient's pain and left lower extremity weakness subsided. In conclusion, although peripheral entrapment neuropathy due to rhabdomyolysis is rare, early diagnosis and treatment using ultrasound-guided nerve hydrodissection may yield favorable clinical outcomes.
