Efficacy of intrathecal baclofen bolus on neuropathic pain in patients with spinal cord injury: A protocol for systematic review and meta-analysis.
Article in Medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThis study will explore the efficacy and safety of intrathecal baclofen bolus (IBB) on neuropathic pain (NPP) in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI).
methodsAll potential literatures of IBB on NPP in patients with SCI will be searched from the following electronic databases from inauguration to the January 31, 2020: PUBMED, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Chinese Scientific Journal Database Information, WANGFANG, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure. In addition, we will search other sources, such as dissertations and reference lists of included trials. There are no restrictions of language and publication status in searching all literature sources. The quality of each eligible trial will be assessed using Cochrane risk of bias tool, and publication bias will be checked using a funnel plot and Egger test. Statistical analysis will be conducted using RevMan 5.3 software.
resultsThis study will scrutinize the efficacy and safety of IBB on NPP in patients with SCI through pain intensity of NPP, spasticity, walking ability, health-related quality of life, duration of stay at hospital (days), incidence of adverse event, and mortality rate.
conclusionsThe findings of this study will present helpful evidence to judge whether IBB is effective on NPP in patients with SCI or not. STUDY REGISTRATION NUMBER: INPLASY202040192.
