Development of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation for central poststroke pain: A review.
Review in Medicine, 2025. 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
The higher incidence of central poststroke pain (CPSP) has a severe negative impact on patients' mood, sleep, recovery, and quality of life, with bad medication outcomes. On the contrary, noninvasive transcranial magnetic stimulation is safe, and its analgesic effect has been verified in clinical practice. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation may treat CPSP by various mechanisms, including modulating immune responses, promoting neurogenesis, improving cortical excitability, increasing interneuronal connectivity, and brain remodeling, but the exact mechanism and standard treatment regimen are still inconclusive and controversial. Therefore, the review summarizes recent advances regarding the possible mechanisms, treatment options, precautions, and future trends of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation for the treatment of CPSP, to provide new ideas for better clinical work and scientific exploration.
