Atypical Central Neuropathic Pain Following Stroke Presenting With Distal Movement-Evoked Shoulder Pain: A Case Report.
Article in Archives of rehabilitation research and clinical translation, 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
This case report describes a unique presentation of central neuropathic pain (CNP) in a Chinese male in his 40s, following a large right basal ganglia hemorrhage with extension into the right middle cerebral artery (MCA) territory, characterized by left shoulder pain reproducibly triggered by passive wrist and finger extension. The report outlines the sequential treatment approach implemented for pain management. Although spasticity and shoulder pain are common sequelae of stroke, this case highlights the importance of considering central neuropathic mechanisms in patients with atypical or refractory symptoms. It also underscores the heterogeneity of CNP following stroke and the need for heightened clinical awareness of this condition.
