1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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 information available on cervical myelopathies (CMs) and cervical pain (CP) in non-chondrodystrophic breeds remains limited compared to chondrodystrophic breeds. The expression of CP in CMs may depend on lesion type, severity and onset of clinical signs. This retrospective single-centre study reviewed the medical records of 112 purebred non-chondrodystrophic dogs referred for neurological evaluation, in which C1-T2 lesions were subsequently confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Clinical onset was categorised as acute (≤7 days) or chronic (>7 days). Neurological grade was classified into four neurological groups (G1-G4). CP was graded using a study-specific, non-validated five-point ordinal clinical scale. Multifactorial analysis of variance (ANOVA), odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals, and multivariable binomial logistic regression were performed. ANOVA showed significant effects of group (
