Effect of Polydeoxyribonucleotide Injection in a Patient With Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.
Article in American journal of physical medicine & rehabilitation, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07401017 (The Effects of Rosuvastatin on Physiological Adaptation and Safety During Regular Long-Distance Running Training), which is not on this map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.

Abstract
Ultrasound-guided corticosteroid injection into the carpal tunnel is widely performed for the management of carpal tunnel syndrome. However, this injection may worsen the condition in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Polydeoxyribonucleotide was recently recognized as a substitute for corticosteroid because of its anti-inflammatory effects. A 41-yr-old woman with type 2 diabetes mellitus was admitted to our rehabilitation clinic with a 1-mo history of numbness and tingling in her right hand and first three fingers tips. She declined corticosteroid treatment because of a previous episode of uncontrolled blood glucose levels after corticosteroid injection. Therefore, ultrasound-guided polydeoxyribonucleotide injections into the carpal tunnel were carried out. At the 6-mo follow-up, the patient demonstrated an improvement in the carpal tunnel syndrome symptoms without any complications. Thus, polydeoxyribonucleotide injections into the carpal tunnel can be an alternative to corticosteroid injections for carpal tunnel syndrome if there are limitations because of adverse effects of the latter.
