Conservative Treatment of Anteriorly Angulated Post-traumatic Coccydynia: A Case Report.
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
Coccydynia refers to pain in the coccygeal region, typically exacerbated by sitting and commonly resulting from direct trauma or difficult childbirth. We report the case of a 34-year-old woman presenting with persistent coccygeal pain one month after falling down a flight of stairs. Clinical examination revealed localized tenderness over the coccyx, aggravated by sitting, while lateral radiography demonstrated anterior angulation of the coccyx. Conservative treatment was initiated, including avoidance of prolonged sitting, use of a coccygeal cushion, local analgesic therapy, and a structured physiotherapy program. At three months, the patient's pain decreased from 7/10 to 2/10 on the VAS, with improved sitting tolerance. This case highlights the effectiveness of individualized conservative treatment in post-traumatic coccydynia before any invasive interventions.
