ReviewSpinal cord series and cases2020
Bulbocavernosus or anal reflex, one or both should be tested after spinal cord injury.
Review in Spinal cord series and cases, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
There are several methods for determining the remaining function of the sacral spinal cord following a spinal cord injury. Two of these methods are the bulbocavernosus and the anal wink reflexes. The choice of which reflex to use should be determined by the need for clinical information. These two reflexes provide similar information; however, they may have different prognostic value.
