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

Background: Dystonia, one of the most common movement disorders, It was mostly a result of pathology in basal ganglia; there have been increasing numbers of dystonia cases reported in patients with spinal cord pathology. Case Presentation: Here we report, a 14 year old female adolescent from Addis Ababa Ethiopia presented with dystonia of extremities within one month after she was diagnosed with transverse myelitis. Conclusion: Although any spinal cord pathology can result in spinal dystonia, demyelinating diseases are among the leading causes. There are few case reports on dystonic spasm caused by acute transverse myelitis. This case report describes an instance of spinal dystonia associated with transverse myelitis in an adolescent female.
