Effectiveness of
Article in BMJ open, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05789225 (Evaluation of a Self-management Program to Prevent Falls in Ambulatory and Non-ambulatory People With Multiple Sclerosis), which is not on this 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.

Abstract
introductionMETHODS AND ANALYSIS: A parallel-group RCT with a mixed methods process evaluation as well as a cost-effectiveness evaluation will be conducted. We aim to recruit 240 PwMS, who will be stratified by ambulation level and randomised 1:1 in blocks of eight to intervention or control. The group-based self-management fall prevention intervention involves eight 2-hour online synchronous sessions (approximately eight participants/group) facilitated by a licensed healthcare professional and home assignments to be completed by participants between sessions. The setting is online, and participants can be located anywhere in Sweden. The control and intervention groups will also receive a brochure on fall risk factors and fall prevention in addition to their standard MS care and rehabilitation. Data collection will be performed at baseline and 3, 6 and 12 months after the start of the intervention. Falls will be monitored via a short message service every week during 1 year from the start of the intervention. The primary outcome is fall frequency (falls/person/year). Secondary outcomes include injurious falls, falls control, fear of falling, falls self-efficacy, activity curtailment, perceived effect of MS, self-rated health and cost-effectiveness. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: Ethical approval has been obtained from the Swedish Ethical Review Authority (registration numbers 2022-06667-01 and 2023-07723-02). The RCT will adhere to the Declaration of Helsinki. Written consent to participate will be obtained from all participants. Study-related information about participants will be stored securely at Karolinska Institutet. The results will be presented in peer-reviewed journals, through the patient organisation Neuro Sweden, at conferences, and in social media. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT05789225.
