A New Onset of Vocal Tic in an Adult Lady Secondary to Brain Metastasis.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Tics are neuropsychiatric events characterized by brief, rapid motor movements or vocalizations in response to irresistible premonitory urges. They start in childhood and may or may not persist in adulthood. Adulthood-onset tics are usually an extinction of undiagnosed tics in childhood. Secondary tic disorders may be due to brain tumors, medications, or neurological disorders. In this article, we are describing a woman in her 60s who presented with a new-onset vocal tic a few years after being diagnosed with gluteal sarcoma that metastasized to the lung and brain, involving the left temporal and right occipital lobes. This case is similar to previously reported case reports of secondary tic disorders, although the type of tic, the brain region involved, and the primary tumors are different.
