1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Neurographic studies are an extension of clinical examination and are performed for the functional assessment of peripheral nerves. The study of motor and sensory conduction velocity and the presence, amplitude, morphology and symmetry of the response to electrical stimulation are crucial for the diagnosis and management of peripheral neuromuscular disorders. Neurography also plays an important role in the search for so-called late responses comprising the F wave, H reflex, axonal response and A wave. By analysing the parameters of each late wave, this paper addresses the pathophysiological features and the most common conditions impairing the physiology of late responses, with a special focus on A waves.
