1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Dystonia is a movement disorder that produces involuntary muscle contractions. Current pharmacological treatments are of limited efficacy. Dystonia, like epilepsy is a disorder involving excessive activty of motor areas including motor cortex and several causal gene mutations have been identified. In order to evaluate potential novel agents for multitarget therapy for dystonia, we have developed a computer model of cortex that includes some of the complex array of molecular interactions that, along with membrane ion channels, control cell excitability.
