The Role and Importance of Small Fiber Neuropathy in Fibromyalgia Pain.
Review in Current pain and headache reports, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Serious investigators of fibromyalgia (FM) realize the profound implications of finding features of small fiber neuropathy (SFN) in this disorder. For the first time, an easily reproducible and generally agreed upon, peripheral tissue lesion has been reported from multiple investigative centers. Understanding how this discovery relates to other features of FM, and how one might utilize it to better comprehend, and care for, afflicted patients' painful complaints remains a challenge, however. In this article we review how the SFN seen in FM may be placed in context, and suggest how such a tissue abnormality might be used to better understand the pathophysiology of FM, and plan for its effective treatment. We also suggest how finding SFN in FM implies the need for continued focused research within the area of neuropathic disease in FM.
