Hemifacial Spasm as the Presenting Manifestation of Type 3c Diabetes Mellitus.
Article in Tremor and other hyperkinetic movements (New York, N.Y.), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Background: Type 3c diabetes mellitus (T3cDM) usually occurs because of a variety of exocrine pancreatic diseases with varying mechanisms, which eventually lead to secondary pancreatic endocrine insufficiency i.e. hyperglycemia. Phenomenology: A man suffering from previously undiagnosed T3cDM presenting with subacute onset hemifacial spasm. Educational value: This case emphasizes the importance of rapid bedside measurement of capillary blood glucose in patients presenting with acute to subacute onset movements disorders irrespective of their past glycemic status.
