ReviewNeuroRehabilitation2015
Comprehensive rehabilitative care across the spectrum of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
Review in NeuroRehabilitation, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03604822 (Measuring the Effects of a Music Therapy Protocol on Respiratory and Bulbar Functions of Patients With Early and Mid-stage Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis), which is not on this map. Cited by 34 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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.

Abstract
backgroundAmyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS or Lou Gehrig's disease) is a neurodegenerative disease that results in progressive muscle weakness and wasting. There is no known cure and the disease is uniformly fatal. PURPOSE: This review discusses current concepts in ALS care, from breaking the diagnosis to end-of-life care. People with ALS have several multidisciplinary needs due to a complex and dynamic disease process. They benefit from rehabilitation interventions that are individualized and have the goal of optimizing independence, function, and safety. These strategies also help minimize symptomatic burden and maximize quality of life.
conclusionPatient-centered, multidisciplinary care has a significant impact on the life of people with ALS and is the current standard of care for this patient population.
