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

aimsThe hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSPs) are a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by spasticity in the lower limbs. We provide an overview of HSP with an emphasis on recent developments.

methodsA PubMed search using the term "hereditary spastic paraplegia" and "hereditary spastic paraparesis" was conducted for a period from January 2012 to January 2015. We discuss and critique the major studies in the field over this 36-month period.

resultsA total of 346 publications were identified, of which 47 were selected for review. We provide an update of the common forms of HSP and include patient videos. We also discuss how next-generation sequencing (NGS) has led to the accelerated discovery of new HSP genes, including

conclusionThe field of HSP research has been progressing at a rapid pace. The challenge remains in translating these advances into new targeted disease therapies.
