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
Chronic lymphocytic inflammation with pontine perivascular enhancement responsive to steroids (CLIPPERS) has been described in multiple case reports since it was first described in the literature in 2010. The patient described is a 54-year-old man with no significant medical history who presented with ataxia, diplopia and hearing and taste disturbances. His GCS reduced to the point at which he required intubation and he was treated for 50 days on an intensive care unit. The patient's course also includes seizures, first described in 2014, and central pyrexia, which has not been previously described in case reports of CLIPPERS. Intravenous methylprednisolone resulted in a rapid and significant recovery; neurological rehabilitation is ongoing 10 months from diagnosis. The importance of recognition of unusual radiological findings and rapid treatment cannot be overemphasised in improving patient's long-term outcomes.
