Acute myelitis of children with positive anti-GM1 antibody: Case series and literature review.
Review in Medicine, 2018. 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
rationaleTo explore the clinical features, treatment, and prognosis of acute myelitis (AM) of children with positive blood anti- ganglioside (GM1) antibodies. PATIENT CONCERNS: Two cases of AM of children with positive anti-GM1 antibody were retrospectively collected and followed up for 6 months. Two cases had positive helicobacter pylori IgG antibody, and Case 2 also had positive mycoplasma IgM antibody. DIAGNOSES: Two cases had typical symptoms of myelitis, abnormal spinal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and positive serum anti-GM1 IgM.
interventionsThey were treated with steroid, immunoglobulin and rehabilitation. OUTCOMES: Symptoms of AM were relieved after treatment. After 6 months of follow-up, case 1 was fully recovered and case 2 was partially recovered. Summarizing previous reports in literature and our 2 cases, AM with positive anti-GM1 antibody can be induced by multiple pathogen infections. About 35.7% were fully recovered, 42.9% had mild sequelae, and 21.4% had severe sequelae. LESSONS: Post-infection immune injury plays an important role in the pathogenesis of AM with positive anti-GM1 antibody. H pylori and Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection may also induce AM with positive anti-GM1 antibody. Screening and treatment of pathogens were required and only 21.4% patients had severe sequelae after treatment.
