Fascicular Injury in True Neurogenic Thoracic Outlet Syndrome Associated with Manual and Shockwave Therapies: A Case Report.

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
True neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome (nTOS) is a rare condition resulting from brachial plexus compression, frequently associated with congenital anomalies such as cervical ribs or fibrous bands. We report a unique case of nTOS involving both a cervical rib and fibrous band, complicated by an incidental intraoperative finding of a fascicular rupture in the lower part of lower trunk. Notably, the patient had no history of trauma but had undergone multiple sessions of manual therapy and a single extracorporeal shockwave therapy to the cervical region, raising concerns about a potential iatrogenic contribution.
