Group A Streptococcus: a case series of infective compartment syndrome.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 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
Acute compartment syndrome develops when pressure within a closed osteofascial compartment rises above arterial pressure, disrupting local circulation. It is a surgical emergency; if untreated, it causes ischaemia and ultimately tissue necrosis. The majority of cases arise in the lower limbs secondary to fractures, although crush injuries, vascular injuries, burns, and infections are also recognized causes. Infective compartment syndrome in the absence of open soft-tissue injuries is rare and requires multidisciplinary management including surgical decompression, debridement, and targeted antimicrobial therapy. We report three cases of upper-limb compartment syndrome secondary to Group A Streptococcush, highlighting diagnostic challenges, surgical management, and reconstructive outcomes.
