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

In peripheral nerve injuries, autologous nerve grafting is often performed when direct anastomosis is difficult, but in cases involving sensory nerves, nerve conduits may be useful. However, there are few reports on the use of nerve conduits for motor nerve injuries. In this case, we used a nerve conduit to treat a posterior interosseous nerve injury, which is a predominantly motor nerve, and achieved relatively favorable results. This case suggests that nerve conduits could be useful for small-gap, thin motor nerve defects, especially when the injury is close to the neuromuscular junction.
