A rare case of meningoencephalitis by Listeria monocytogenes in systemic lupus erythematosus: case report and review.
Review in Clinical rheumatology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) have a high risk of infection. Central nervous system infection and neuropsychiatric SLE are both major causes of death. It is vital to distinguish between these two conditions to improve prognosis due to the treatment paradigms required for each condition. Here, we report one case of meningoencephalitis by Listeria monocytogenes (LM) in a patient with SLE who presented with fever and developed headache and altered in consciousness in the hospital. The cerebrospinal fluid culture was positive for LM, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings were suggestive of ependymitis and periventricular white matter lesions. Amoxicillin/sulbactam, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, and rifampicin were administered for 8 weeks. The patient had a relative good recovery without serious neurological sequelae after a follow-up of nearly 2 years. MRI abnormalities also had obvious resolution.
