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

Background: Shopping bag tremor (SBT) is a rare activation-specific tremor characterized by weight-dependent oscillations, with uncertain nosological classification. Case Report: We report a 74-year-old woman with a right upper limb tremor triggered by carrying a shopping bag, with mild rest component. Kinematic analysis demonstrated a non-linear load-response relationship, with low tremor amplitude when unloaded, maximal at low loads (1 kg), and progressively decreasing as weight increased. No abnormalities were detected on finger tapping analysis. Discussion: This case expands the phenotypic spectrum of SBT and supports quantitative kinematic analysis as a feasible first-line tool within diagnostic algorithms for complex tremor presentations.
