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

Objective measures of tremor could improve assessment of response to magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) for essential tremor in practice, but it is unclear whether image-derived metrics from spiral drawings reflect clinician judgment. In this study, we analyzed 410 spiral-drawing observations from 106 patients with essential tremor undergoing MRgFUS thalamotomy and compared two recent computer-vision measures with a simple geometric metric (total line length) against an ordinal clinical rating scale for tremor spiral scores using ordered logistic mixed-effects models. Only line length independently tracked worse clinician-rated severity (odds ratio
