MR imaging findings of spinal posterior column involvement in a case of Miller Fisher syndrome.
Article in AJNR. American journal of neuroradiology, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 5 papers.
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
summaryThe site of lesions causing ataxia in Miller Fisher syndrome (MFS) remains in dispute. A 43-year-old man manifested rapidly progressive left-sided ptosis, bilateral abducens palsy, areflexia, and severe ataxia. Initial MR imaging showed confined lesions of the cauda equina with gadolinium enhancement. A diagnosis of MFS was made, and the patient underwent immunotherapy. His ophthalmoplegia disappeared, but other symptoms remained. Five months after onset, MR imaging disclosed lesions confined to the spinal posterior column, which were considered to result from involvement of posterior nerve roots of the cauda equina and to be responsible for his remaining severe ataxia.
