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

Introduction: Huntington disease (HD) is a progressive disorder characterized by significant neurodegeneration that results in severe neuropsychiatric symptoms and disordered movement. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a noninvasive treatment that has been used in major depressive disorder (MDD) with great success. Case Presentation: We present a case of a patient with newly diagnosed HD, persistent MDD with suicidal ideation, and generalized anxiety disorder who was treated with rTMS and had sustained significant improvement of her mood disorder with additional improvement of her movement disorder. Conclusion: This result brings into question the use of rTMS to treat MDD and chorea in patients with HD, especially early in its course.
