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

Peripheral nerve transfer is an effective surgical method in restoring motor functions of upper limb after peripheral nerve injuries. However, the outcome of individual function recovery is less predictable. It is crucial to access the long-term evaluation of function improvement. Here, we developed a fully implantable multisite optogenetic stimulation system, which is tailored for wireless, reprogrammable and long-term function evaluation of peripheral nerve plexus with sub nerve resolution. In Thy1-ChR2-EYFP mice, our system induced distinct compound muscle action potentials and forelimb movements when illuminating different nerve fascicles. Furthermore, we applied the system on a nerve transfer mice model after traumatic brain injury and discovered innervation pattern of the transferred and adjacent nerves to multiple muscles consecutively within 12 weeks after surgery. Our system enabled refined evaluation of electrophysiological and motor functions of peripheral nerve plexus, shining light upon personalized diagnosis and treatment after nerve injuries or surgeries.
