Craniocervical junction involvement in musculoskeletal diseases: an area of close collaboration between rheumatologists and radiologists.
Review in La Radiologia medica, 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
The involvement of the cervical spine in musculoskeletal diseases can be crucial in terms of prognosis and morbidity. Early diagnosis of possible involvement of the craniocervical junction is essential to avoid the onset of neurological complications with poor prognosis. Among inflammatory diseases, rheumatoid arthritis affects the cervical spine frequently (in about 25% of patients). Atlantoaxial inflammatory changes are also detectable in spondyloarthritis. The involvement of the cervical spine in diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis is recognized as the cause of various clinical manifestations that may involve the pharynx, larynx and esophagus. The cervical spine may be specifically frequently implicated in crystal-associated arthropathies. Spinal cord infections are infrequent diseases that account for 3-4% of all spine infections. This pictorial review attempts to provide insights to interpret the radiological appearances of the craniocervical junction on conventional radiography, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging in relation to various musculoskeletal disease processes.
