Improvement of lower urinary tract function by a selective serotonin 5-HT
Article in Experimental neurology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Spinal cord injury (SCI) above the lumbosacral level results in lower urinary tract dysfunction, including (1) detrusor hyperreflexia, wherein bladder compliance is low, and (2) a lack of external urethral sphincter (EUS) control, leading to detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia (DSD) with poor voiding efficiency. Experimental studies in animals have shown a dense innervation of serotonergic (5-HT) fibers and multiple 5-HT receptors in the spinal reflex circuits that control voiding function. Here, we investigated the efficacy of NLX-112 (a.k.a. befiradol or F13640), in regulating lower urinary tract function after T8 contusive SCI in rats. NLX-112 is a very potent, highly-selective, and fully efficacious 5-HT
