1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Dysphagia in multiple sclerosis (MS) has been found to be far more frequent than expected, and should be considered a dangerous condition from its onset because of its potentially serious complications. Among the several classification scales, we use the "O'Neil severity graduation scale" for its correlation between investigation imaging and patients' symptoms. In this paper we describe our treatment plans of mild, moderate and severe dysphagia following a preliminary assessment of symptoms carried out according to the O'Neil dysphagia graduation scale.
