Clinical efficacy and randomized clinical trials in dysphagia.
Article in International journal of speech-language pathology, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
This manuscript reviews the current state of research on treatment efficacy for swallowing disorders in relation to the use of large-scale randomized multi institutional trials. Dose response trials, i.e., how much treatment is needed to achieve the desired result, are not yet available in dysphagia. The financial and medical pressures on clinicians responsible for diagnosing and treating the dysphagic patient are noted as they often impact the timing of patient care in dysphagia. The process of integration of treatment techniques into the diagnostic study (Modified Barium Swallow, videofluoroscopy) to improve the patient's swallow as quickly as possible is described. The availability of a clinical trial group, the Communications Sciences and Disorders Clinical Trials Research Group (CSDRG), is noted to assist clinicians and scientists in the development of all types of clinical trials in dysphagia.
