Fulminant tumefactive multiple sclerosis in pregnancy.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
A 35-year-old pregnant woman was admitted with acute onset of paresthesias and word finding difficulty. Initial MRI scan of the brain was suggestive of ischaemic event. During hospitalisation, she had a rapid course with worsening of her neurological deficit that prompted additional testing. Further investigations were consistent with tumefactive multiple sclerosis. After a poor initial response to intravenous steroids and plasma exchange, and discussion of all available therapeutic options, the patient decided to proceed with elective termination. Introduction of physical, occupational, speech and disease-modifying therapy resulted in clinical improvement.
