Anterior Cutaneous Nerve Entrapment Syndrome Triggered by Thoracic Compression Fracture and Weight Loss.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Anterior cutaneous nerve entrapment syndrome (ACNES) and thoracic radiculopathy are rare forms of abdominal pain. Therefore, we herein report an older man with chronic right lower abdominal pain from coexisting ACNES and thoracic radiculopathy, probably triggered by asymptomatic thoracic compression fractures and significant weight loss. The diagnosis was confirmed based on a positive Carnett's sign and immediate pain relief after the diagnostic lidocaine injection. Imaging revealed a T12 compression fracture with narrowing of the right T11/12 intervertebral foramen. This case highlights the need to consider ACNES and spinal pathology in older patients with unexplained abdominal pain in the context of frailty and postural changes.
