Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy versus placebo for post-concussion syndrome (HOT-POCS): A randomized, double-blinded controlled pilot study.
Article in Contemporary clinical trials communications, 2023. 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
Post-Concussion Syndrome (PCS) refers to the persistence of physical, cognitive, and emotional symptoms following mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI)/concussion, occurring in roughly 15-30% of individuals. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) has been suggested as a potential treatment for PCS; however, the evidence to date is mixed due to inconsistencies in the treatment protocol and focus on veterans with combat-related injuries, which may not be generalizable to the general population. The goal of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for Post-Concussion Syndrome (HOT-POCS) is to assess the efficacy and safety of HBOT for the treatment of PCS in the civilian population. This randomized, controlled pilot study will be using a standardized HBOT protocol (20 sessions of 100% O
