PML-IRIS in an HIV-2-infected patient presenting as Bell's palsy.
Article in Journal of neurovirology, 2017. 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
We present the case of an HIV-2-infected patient who developed progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) in the setting of immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS) presenting as Bell's palsy. The brain MRI showed a single lesion in the facial colliculus considered initially to be ischemic in nature. This case report should alert clinicians that PML can occur in the setting of HIV-2 infection. It also illustrates the difficulty of establishing the diagnosis of PML.
