Can Spinal Cord Stimulation be Considered as a Frontier for Chronic Pain in Diabetic Foot?
Review in Pain and therapy, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Chronic pain in the diabetic foot (DF) is a common complication of diabetes, bringing a significant burden to patients, their families, and even society. There is no very effective treatment for it, traditional treatments such as medication, lumbar sympathetic nerve block, and alternative therapies are often not very effective and have more adverse effects. The emergence of neuromodulation technology has brought new hope for the treatment of DF, among which spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is a hotspot in current research and has achieved remarkable efficacy in the study of DF treatment by blocking pain signaling and improving circulation and other mechanisms. This article reviews the SCS technique and clinical trails of SCS for chronic DF pain, and describes the prospects and current challenges of SCS.
