Spinal Cord Injury in the Mouse Using the Infinite Horizon Spinal Cord Impactor.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2022. 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
Death of central nervous system neurons is a critical feature of spinal cord injury (SCI). The Infinite Horizon spinal cord impactor can be used to create both contusion and compression SCI, with a high degree of reproducibility. The device can also be positioned at different locations along the spinal cord to evaluate how the location of injury may alter neuronal death and functional recovery. A mouse with a successful SCI can experience a period of loss of bladder function, weight loss, and paralysis of the hind limbs, with more severe injuries resulting in further deficits. This chapter describes the surgical protocol along with pre- and postoperative care, as well as mitigation strategies for any setbacks that might occur.
