Neurological Improvement with Medical Cannabis in a Progressive Supranuclear Palsy Patient: A Case Report.
Article in Medical cannabis and cannabinoids, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is a severe, debilitating, and often fatal disease resembling other neurodegenerative disorders, namely Alzheimer's (AD) and Parkinson's (PD) diseases, which have been successfully treated with cannabinoids. We herein report the case of a 71-year-old woman diagnosed with PSP, displaying severe impairment of motor and language functions which progressively improved after treatment with medical cannabis. Before treatment, the patient was unable to move her limbs, was fed soft food, and was unable to speak or move her eyes. The patient has regained horizontal eye movement, is able to walk with assistance, has returned to physiotherapy, started to eat solid food, and has had a remarkable improvement in her speech. The possible mechanisms of this improvement are discussed.
