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
objectiveThe Manual Ability Measure-36 (MAM-36) has been used to assess subjective upper limb function in people with several neurological and non-neurological diseases. Besides, the MAM-36 is one of the most commonly used patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) in people with multiple sclerosis (pwMS). The aim was to translate and conduct cross-cultural adaptation of the MAM-36 into Turkish and investigate its psychometric properties in pwMS.
methodsThe MAM-36 was translated and culturally adapted into Turkish. Two hundred pwMS were recruited for the psychometric study. Hand skills, handgrip strength, upper limb spasticity, disability level, and quality of life were evaluated by the validated performance-based tests and questionnaires including the Arm Function in Multiple Sclerosis Questionnaire (AMSQ) which is a validated MS-specific PROM to assess upper limb function.
resultsMAM-36 was significantly correlated with the performance-based tests and questionnaires, EDSS, age, and disease duration (p < 0.05). MAM-36 and AMSQ were strongly correlated (r
conclusionThe Turkish version of MAM-36 has been found as a valid and reliable method for measuring upper limb function in pwMS.
