Unusual cause of acute neurologic deficit in childhood: primary central nervous system vasculitis presenting with basilar arterial occlusion.
Article in Child's nervous system : ChNS : official journal of the International Society for Pediatric Neurosurgery, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
introductionPrimary central nervous system (CNS) vasculitis of childhood is a rare disorder. The most common signs and symptoms are acute severe headache and focal neurologic deficit. It should be suspected in children who have an acquired neurologic deficit that remains unexplained after an initial basic evaluation. Diagnosis usually depends on brain magnetic resonance imaging and conventional angiography of cerebral vasculature. Stenosis is the most common angiographic finding and it usually affects the middle cerebral artery and its branches. Anterior and posterior circulation is rarely involved. CASE REPORT: In this report, we describe an 8-year-old boy who presented with vertebrobasilar insufficiency symptoms and primary CNS vasculitis diagnosis was made later.
