1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Belly dancer's dyskinesia is a rare movement disorder that can be classified under hyperkinetic movement disorders. It is characterized by rhythmic or semi-rhythmic contractions of the diaphragm and other abdominal muscles that are brief and involuntary that cannot be voluntarily suppressed but could be influenced by respiratory maneuvers. Belly dancer's dyskinesia in pregnancy even rarer, there have only been five reported cases. Here, we reported 19-year-old Ethiopian pregnant women who presented with oscillating movements of the abdomen that occurred at her ninth month of pregnancy. The general medical and neurological examinations were unremarkable. Complete blood count, basic metabolic panels, and biochemistry tests were all within the normal range. The patient responded to the trial of valproate with complete resolution of the abdominal dyskinesia after delivery.
