Arching deep brain stimulation in dystonia types.
Review in Journal of neural transmission (Vienna, Austria : 1996), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Although medical treatment including botulinum toxic injection is the first-line treatment for dystonia, response is insufficient in many patients. In these patients, deep brain stimulation (DBS) can provide significant clinical improvement. Mounting evidence indicates that DBS is an effective and safe treatment for dystonia, especially for idiopathic and inherited isolated generalized/segmental dystonia, including DYT-TOR1A. Other inherited dystonia and acquired dystonia also respond to DBS to varying degrees. For Meige syndrome (craniofacial dystonia), other focal dystonia, and some rare inherited dystonia, further evidences are still needed to evaluate the role of DBS. Because short disease duration at DBS surgery and absence of fixed musculoskeletal deformity are associated with better outcome, DBS should be considered as early as possible when indicated after careful evaluation including genetic work-up. This review will focus on the factors to be considered in DBS for patients with dystonia and the outcome of DBS in the different types of dystonia.
