Subacute High-Grade Ulnar Neuropathy Without Trauma: A Case of Cubital Tunnel Syndrome.
Article in Cureus, 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
Cubital tunnel syndrome (CuTS) typically presents gradually, and an acute overnight onset of severe ulnar neuropathy is rare. A 46-year-old female recreational pickleball player awoke with a right-hand claw deformity and sensory loss without preceding symptoms or trauma. Examination showed intrinsic weakness and decreased ulnar sensation; electrodiagnostic studies revealed subacute on chronic axonal and demyelinating changes at the elbow consistent with moderate CuTS. She underwent cubital tunnel release one week after onset, with rapid sensory improvement but delayed motor recovery. This case highlights an atypical acute presentation of CuTS and underscores the importance of prompt evaluation and timely intervention to mitigate persistent deficits.
