Long-Term Effects With Potential Clinical Importance of Botulinum Toxin Type-A on Mechanics of Muscles Exposed.
Article in Frontiers in bioengineering and biotechnology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Botulinum toxin type-A (BTX-A) is widely used for spasticity management and mechanically aims at reducing passive resistance at the joint and widening joint range of movement. However, recent experiments on acute BTX-A effects showed that the injected rat tibialis anterior (TA) muscle's passive forces increased, and the length range of active force exertion (
