Abrupt Loss of Spinal Cord Stimulation After Trauma: A Case-Based Approach to Evaluation and Management.
Article in Orthopedic reviews, 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
Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is an established therapy for refractory neuropathic pain following lumbar spine surgery and frequently allows for meaningful pain reductio, functional improvement, and minimizing reliance on pharmacotherapy and opioids. Despite its efficacy, hardware-related complications remain an important cause of treatment failure. We present a fictional teaching case of a 68-year old man with persistent bilateral radicular pain after lumbar decompression who experienced 80% relief following SCS implantation. Eight months later, after a motor vehicle collision, he developed abrupt loss of stimulation coverage and recurrence of severe neuropathic symptoms. This teaching case discusses appropriate next steps for evaluation and management in this particular clinical scenario.
