Medial tibial stress syndrome.
Review in Musculoskeletal surgery, 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
Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome (MTSS) is an overuse pathological condition, characterized by pain and tenderness along the posteromedial border of the tibia. The duration and severity of symptoms, in some cases, may lead to marked functional impairment and undermine athletic performance.There is a lack of consensus across literature regarding several aspects of MTSS. The purpose of this narrative review is to synthesize current evidence and highlight key elements related to MTSS.Findings indicate that MTSS is a multifactorial condition involving periosteal traction, bone overload and impaired remodeling. Epidemiological data are heterogeneous, but MTSS remains prevalent among athletes and military personnel. Multiple intrinsic and extrinsic risk factors contribute to its onset. Diagnosis is primarily clinical, supported by imaging. Conservative management, consisting of rest, anti-inflammatory medications and physiotherapy, remains the cornerstone, while the evidence for surgical intervention is limited and methodologically weak.
