Neurological complications of Behçet's syndrome.
Review in Journal of neurology, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 19 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
In this review of the neurological complications of Behçet's syndrome, the clinical features and epidemiology of the systemic disease are summarised before a discussion of the neurological syndromes which may develop is made. Neurological involvement occurs in 9% of cases, and is equally prevalent in each geographical area. Vascular complications occur in 14%, in whom thrombosis of the venous sinuses or cerebral veins occurs, and intracranial hypertension, venous infarction and parenchymal haemorrhage may develop. There is a correlation with the prevalence of peripheral venous thrombosis. Concurrent inflammatory disease of the brain is most uncommon. Inflammation may affect any part of the central nervous system, but most commonly involves a subacute meningoencephalitis of the brainstem and diencephalon. Inflammatory lesions elsewhere in the brain and in the spinal cord may occur, and tumefactive lesions may arise from the diencephalon. Cognitive dysfunction and affective symptoms, including psychosis, may occur, and there are high levels of anxiety and fatigue which are related to the severity of the systemic disease, all of which are more severe in those with neurological involvement. Imaging shows enhancing lesions which often disappear after treatment, but atrophy is common. The CSF is active when there is a meningoencephalitis, and oligoclonal bands do not occur. Treatment is with steroids and immunosuppression. Those with treatment resistant disease respond to biological agents, including TNF alpha, IL-1 and IL-6 antagonists.
