Multiple cerebral infarctions in a patient with Churg-Strauss syndrome.
Article in Journal of neurology, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Neurological manifestation of Churg-Strauss syndrome (CSS) is common and usually consists of peripheral neuropathy due to small-vessel vasculitis, while cerebral manifestation is less frequent. We report the case of a 77-year-old woman with multiple cerebral infarctions and hypereosinophilia. The presence of hypereosinophilia, asthma, sinusitis and vasculitis led to the diagnosis of CSS. As cerebral infarctions occurred monophasically and an elevation of heart enzymes was present, we assumed cardiac involvement and multiple cerebral infarctions due to cardiac embolism. Treatment with high-dose IV methylprednisone and cyclophosphamide pulses led to significant improvement. This case illustrates multiple cerebral infarctions in CSS. CSS should always be considered in patients with hypereosinophilia and stroke.
