Restless leg syndrome in spinal cord injury: case report.
Article in Spinal cord series and cases, 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
case descriptionRestless leg syndrome (RLS) is a condition infrequently reported in spinal cord injury that causes an uncomfortable sensation in the legs and an urge to move them. We report a case involving a 63-year-old man with incomplete paraplegia with an onset of RLS four years post injury.
findingsBased upon history, pramipexole was prescribed for the presumptive diagnosis of RLS, with good effect. Initial workup revealed an anemia (hemoglobin of 9.3 gram/deciliter (g/dl)) and iron deficiency (ferritin of 10 microgram/liter (μg/L)), necessitating further evaluation.
conclusionDue to the complexities in diagnosing RLS in patients with SCI, it is important to be cognizant of symptoms and to consider this diagnosis to initiate the appropriate work-up for an etiology, of which iron deficiency anemia is common.
