The habit cough syndrome and its variations.
Review in Lung, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Involuntary cough without an identified underlying organic reason has been given various names and recommended treatments. Current experience suggests that "habit cough" best describes this entity. Suggestion therapy in its various forms is the treatment of choice. Successful therapy is directed at demonstrating to the patient that he/she has the ability to resist the urge to cough. Attempts at medical treatment or use of placebo therapy, even with the suggestion that the "medicine" will stop the cough, are generally not successful. Continued symptoms for years can occur in the absence of suggestion therapy. Sustained relapse after suggestion therapy is uncommon.
