A Rare Case of Hyperhomocysteinemia-associated Thrombotic Stroke in the Pediatric Age Group.

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
Association between hyperhomocysteinemia and stroke has been well documented in the literature. However, there are limited reports revealing stroke events in the pediatric population affected by hyperhomocysteinemia. Herein, we present a case which shows genetically inherited hyperhomocysteinemia leading to a stroke event in a 14-year-old child. The patient presented to the outpatient clinic with dizziness and nonprojectile vomiting since the previous day without any history of weakness in the extremities or unconsciousness. The preliminary neurologic examination showed positive right-sided cerebellar signs like ataxia on physical examination and the final diagnostic workup confirmed acute non-hemorrhagic bilateral cerebellar and medullary infarction with hyperhomocysteinemia. We discuss the case presentation, diagnostic workup, and management strategies.
