Atypical radiological presentation of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy following liver transplantation.
Article in Journal of neurovirology, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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
Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML), a demyelinating disease of the brain caused by JC virus (JCV), occurs following transplantation and other conditions associated with immunosuppression. On magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), PML lesions typically appear as hyperintense signal on T2-weighted and FLAIR images located in the subcortical white matter, which are devoid of contrast enhancement or mass effect. The prognosis is poor, but unusual inflammatory forms of PML characterized by contrast enhancement have been associated with a cellular immune response against JCV and a better prognosis. The authors report an atypical presentation of PML with contrast-enhancing lesions and mass effect on the MRI in a liver transplant recipient,who had a progressive course and fatal outcome.
