Ampakines Stimulate Diaphragm Activity after Spinal Cord Injury.
Article in Journal of neurotrauma, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 28 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
Respiratory compromise after cervical spinal cord injury (SCI) is a leading cause of mortality and morbidity. Most SCIs are incomplete, and spinal respiratory motoneurons as well as proprio- and bulbospinal synaptic pathways provide a neurological substrate to enhance respiratory output. Ampakines are allosteric modulators of α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptors, which are prevalent on respiratory neurons. We hypothesized that low dose ampakine treatment could safely and effectively increase diaphragm electromyography (EMG) activity that has been impaired as a result of acute- or sub-acute cervical SCI. Diaphragm EMG was recorded using chronic indwelling electrodes in unanesthetized, freely moving rats. A spinal hemi-lesion was induced at C2 (C2Hx), and rats were studied at 4 and 14 days post-injury during room air breathing and acute respiratory challenge accomplished by inspiring a 10% O
