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

Movement disorders associated with neuromuscular diseases are often underrecognized, yet they represent a distinct clinical entity. Abnormalities in areas of the peripheral nervous system, i.e., nerves and muscles, can stem from dysfunction of ion channels and proteins involved in membrane excitability. Hyperexcitability of peripheral motor nerves presents as cramps, stiffness, abnormal posture and gait, as well as changes in motor unit potentials during electromyography studies; hence, it may be classified as a movement problem. Etiologies range from hereditary, immune-mediated, or may be secondary to structural changes. This review focuses on peripheral nervous system and muscle-derived movement disorders associated with autoantibodies. It aims to highlight immune-mediated peripheral nerve hyperexcitability syndromes, stiff-person spectrum disorders, and immune-mediated rippling muscle disease (a movement disorder of muscular origin). It also discusses pathophysiology, diagnosis (particularly immunologic markers), and therapeutics.
