[Quantitative sensory testing].
Article in Schmerz (Berlin, Germany), 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04835779 (Biometric and Biological Data for Diagnosis and Therapy of Pain Patients German), which is not on this map. Cited by 22 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.

Abstract
Quantitative sensory testing (QST) is a standardized and formalized set of clinical sensitivity tests based on subjective (psychophysical) methods, which depends on the cooperation of the subject being investigated. Calibrated stimuli are used to measure the perception and pain thresholds, which provide information on the presence of sensory plus or minus signs. The QST equipment presented mimics natural thermal or mechanical stimuli. The rationale is to test for patterns of functional sensory loss or gain by simultaneous assessment of both cutaneous and deep pain sensitivity. The majority of QST parameters are normally distributed only after logarithmic transformation (i.e. secondary normalization). With QST a complete somatosensory profile can be obtained within 1 h. The QST is a suitable method for characterizing the function of the somatosensory system in clinical trials and also in clinical practice as a diagnostic procedure.
