Central post-stroke pain: advances in clinical and preclinical research.
Review in Stroke and vascular neurology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Central poststroke pain (CPSP) is a medical complication that arises poststroke and significantly impacts the quality of life and social functioning of affected individuals. Despite ongoing research, the exact pathomechanisms of CPSP remain unclear, and practical treatments are still unavailable. Our review aims to systematically analyse current clinical and preclinical studies on CPSP, which is critical for identifying gaps in knowledge and guiding the development of effective therapies. The review will clarify the clinical characteristics, evaluation scales and contemporary therapeutic approaches for CPSP based on clinical investigations. It will particularly emphasise the CPSP model initiated by stroke, shedding light on its underlying mechanisms and evaluating treatments validated in preclinical studies. Furthermore, the review will not only highlight methodological limitations in animal trials but also offer specific recommendations to researchers to improve the quality of future investigations and guide the development of effective therapies. This review is expected to provide valuable insights into the current knowledge regarding CPSP and can serve as a guide for future research and clinical practice. The review will contribute to the scientific understanding of CPSP and help develop effective clinical interventions.
