Exploring the role of music therapy in multiple sclerosis: brief updates from research to clinical practice.
Synthesis in Neurological sciences : official journal of the Italian Neurological Society and of the Italian Society of Clinical Neurophysiology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundPhysical, cognitive and mood-behavioral disturbances are very common in people with multiple sclerosis (MS) representing a relevant disease burden. Recently, in this field, several studies investigated the role of music therapy (MT) as a complementary therapeutic approach especially in terms of rehabilitation strategy.
objectivesThe aim of this review is to report and discuss the effectiveness of various music-based interventions (MBIs) for clinical outcomes in MS patients. DATA SOURCES: All English medical papers registered in the Web of Knowledge, PubMed, Google Scholar, and ScienceDirect from March 1999 to March 2019. INCLUSION AND EXCLUSION CRITERIA: We selected all the articles concerning MBIs in MS including papers that dealt with human samples and excluding non-human samples, reviews and case reports.
resultsOut of 46 articles, we selected 24 papers of which 13 completely following the inclusion criteria were evaluated for the present analysis. DISCUSSION: We explored the efficacy of several MT programs, taking into account the different aspects of application feasibility in the clinical management of MS patients and the future challenges.
