[Modern non-cosmetic treatment with botulinum toxins].
Review in Der Internist, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Botulinum toxin has been known in medical history for a long time. The first scientific investigations and thoughts on possible indications in the treatment of muscular disorders were published by the German physician and poet Justinus Kerner in 1822. The physiological effect of botulinum toxin was identified in the middle of the twentieth century and the first clinical use was reported in 1977. It was first used in ophthalmology for the correction of strabismus and some years later the therapy of blepharospasm and cervical dystonia was established. Further indications, all supported by randomized controlled studies, are spastic tone increase of the limbs after lesions of the central nervous system, idiopathic axillar hyperhidrosis, chronic migraine and neurogenic or idiopathic bladder hyperactivity. In addition to these indications, a large number of further possible options have been published in the literature. Beside its effect on transmission at the neuromuscular synapses, botulinum toxin has also been shown to affect the sensory transmission of nociceptive fibers.
