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

Palatal tremor has been subdivided into essential (EPT) and symptomatic palatal tremor (SPT). Progressive ataxia and palatal tremor syndrome (PAPT) is a subgroup of symptomatic palatal tremor (SPT). It can be divided into familial and sporadic forms. Sporadic PAPT is characterized by progressive cerebellar degeneration. The cause of sporadic PAPT remains uncertain. MRI examination found an enlarged appearance of the olivary nuclei with increased signal intensity on T2 and FLAIR images. Here we report a case of a mid-adult-onset man which presents a worsening cerebellar progressive ataxia with palatal tremor, in whom imaging reveals abnormalities of the olivary nuclei with tardive cerebellar atrophy which has been diagnosed as a sporadic PAPT.
