Endosulfan-Induced Prolonged Super-Refractory Status Epilepticus.
Article in Journal of epilepsy research, 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
Endosulfan is a highly toxic pesticide that causes hyperstimulation of the central nervous system by antagonizing gamma aminobutyric acid-mediated inhibition. Seizure is the most important manifestation of endosulfan poisoning, frequently progressing to status epilepticus and refractory status epilepticus. Here, we report a recent case of a 64-year-old man with endosulfan-induced super-refractory status epilepticus, which persisted for a remarkably longer period than has been described in previous reports. The patient arrived at the emergency room with continuous generalized tonic-clonic seizures. Electroencephalogram-recorded seizures that persisted even after intravenous administration of lorazepam and antiepileptic drugs. Intravenous anesthetic agents were administered for 9 days to confront the persistently recurring seizures. Immediately after this treatment period, the seizures subsided, and the patient showed marked neurological improvement. After 2 months however, he died of multiple systemic complications. This case report elucidates the importance of aggressive evaluation and management including continuous EEG monitoring in cases of endosulfan-related status epilepticus.
