Intrathecal baclofen obviating the need for bladder stimulator use in a patient with secondary dystonia: illustrative case.
Article in Journal of neurosurgery. Case lessons, 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
backgroundChildren with cerebral palsy often have neurogenic bladders. Bladder function is further affected by complex medical management and multifactorial disease processes, leading to worsened function and poorer quality of life. Intrathecal baclofen (ITB) therapy has been used to treat hypertonia and spasticity, but implications in neurogenic bladder management have not been well described. OBSERVATIONS: A 20-year-old female with a history of cerebral palsy and neurogenic bladder treated with sacral neuromodulation underwent ITB therapy and subsequently experienced improvement in bladder control, obviating the need for bladder stimulator use. LESSONS: ITB improves hypertonia and can effectively obviate the need for neurostimulation to treat neurogenic bladder in patients with cerebral palsy. Further research is necessary to discern mechanisms. https://thejns.org/doi/10.3171/CASE24364.
