Treatment of nonconvulsive status epilepticus.
Article in Current treatment options in neurology, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
opinion statementStatus epilepticus is a neurologic emergency with significant potential morbidity and even mortality. It should be diagnosed and treated as quickly as possible, with concurrent rapid identification of the underlying cause. Nonconvulsive status epilepticus can be difficult to diagnose due to its protean manifestations, so a high index of suspicion is vital to prompt diagnosis and effective management. There are several different types and syndromes of nonconvulsive status epilepticus, and appropriate treatment varies according to those types. Some are relatively benign. Others, particularly the nonconvulsive status encountered in sick, hospitalized patients, can be life-threatening. The latter should be treated much more rapidly and aggressively than the former, sometimes even requiring coma-inducing anesthetic agents.
