Effects of intrathecal Baclofen in reducing tremors in patients with multiple sclerosis.
Article in Neurosciences (Riyadh, Saudi Arabia), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Symptomatic treatment of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is crucial, since it helps to lessen the limitations that affect patients' daily lives. Tremors are a significant and frequent symptom in MS patients. However, there is still a lack of evidence supporting a specific therapeutic approach for MS patients' tremors. A 41-year-old man with a history of MS is presented in this study. He exhibited stiffness and tremors at the follow-up clinic, which affected his daily activities. For his spasticity, he received intrathecal baclofen (ITB). The patient's symptoms responded well to this treatment, as both stiffness and tremors decreased. In an MS patient, ITB therapy thus unexpectedly reduced and improved tremor symptoms.
