Autonomic nervous system disorders in multiple sclerosis.
Review in Journal of neurology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic progressive demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (CNS), which also affects the autonomic nervous system (ANS). Manifestations of MS in the ANS include urological, sexual, gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, and thermoregulatory disorders as well as increased fatigue. These problems are common yet are often underestimated due to the non-specificity of the symptoms and the limited evaluation of the ANS in the usual clinical practice. Most of these symptoms seem to be related to localized lesions in the CNS. However, the mechanisms by which these disorders are caused in MS have not been fully investigated, thus preventing any focused etiological treatment. The most common disorders of the ANS in MS represent a challenge for clinicians due to the variability of the clinical picture and our minimal data on their diagnosis and treatment. Early diagnosis and initiation of individualized treatment regimens, often in need of multiple approaches, seem to yield the best results in managing ANS dysfunction in MS patients.
