The Challenges Faced and Lessons Learnt in the Multidisciplinary Management of Medication Refractory Post-Stroke Sialorrhea: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2020. 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
Post-stroke sialorrhea is a very debilitating condition that negatively impacts a person's physical and psychological health. In this report, we discuss a case of medication refractory post-stroke sialorrhea in a female patient. The patient received multidisciplinary management and two fractions of radiotherapy over a course of five months. The treatment was successful, and the patient reported satisfactory control of her sialorrhea symptoms. We hope to highlight the importance of multidisciplinary management and consideration of radiotherapy as a treatment modality when providing care for medication refractory post-stroke sialorrhea patients who are unsuitable for salivary gland botulinum toxin (BoNT) injection and surgery.
