Neurophysiological assessment in a patient affected by Marfan syndrome.
Article in The Journal of international medical research, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundMarfan syndrome (MS) is a hereditary connective tissue disorder characterized by different multiorgan patterns. The guidelines for MS diagnosis do not highlight the usefulness-or even the use-of any neurophysiological techniques for diagnosing this disease. Moreover, few neurophysiological studies assessing the central and peripheral nervous systems in MS subjects have been reported to date.Case presentation: We describe a male patient affected by MS. To assess sensory and nociceptive pathways in this patient, a neurophysiological assessment was performed using electroencephalogram, nerve conduction studies, and somatosensory and laser-evoked potentials. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first published case report to evaluate the role of evoked potential assessments for the study of sensory and nociceptive pathways in MS.
conclusionFuture studies should investigate the use of a complete neurophysiological approach for the clinical and therapeutic management of MS patients in a large sample.
