Managing breakthrough pain.
Review in Current pain and headache reports, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Breakthrough cancer pain (BTcP) has been defined as a transitory increase in pain intensity on a baseline pain of moderate intensity in patients on regularly administered analgesic treatment. This review provides updated information about the classification, assessment, and treatment of BTcP, with special emphasis on the use of opioids. Due to its slow onset to effect, oral opioids cannot be considered an efficacious treatment of BTcP. More recently, different technologies have been developed to provide fast pain relief with potent opioid drugs, such as fentanyl, delivered by noninvasive routes. Transmucosal, buccal, sublingual, and intranasal fentanyl have been shown to provide rapid analgesia in comparison with oral morphine or placebo and are available for clinical use in most countries. All the studies performed with these delivery systems have recommended that these drugs should be administered to opioid-tolerant patients receiving doses of oral morphine equivalents of at least 60 mg. The need of titrating opioid doses for BTcP has been commonly recommended in all the controlled studies, but never has been substantiated in appropriate studies.
