Article in The Pan African medical journal, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is a radioclinical entity associating a reversible central nervous system involvement with a common brain imaging feature. There is a great variability in the clinical presentation of this syndrome and in the features of its sometimes atypical imaging appearance. PRES is an unusual neurological complication occurring during pregnancy or in the post-partum period, other than any pre-existing pathology occurred during pregnancy. Vasogenic edema due to the rupture of the blood-brain barrier seems to be its main cause. We here report the case of a primiparous patient with generalized tonic-clonic seizures associated with hypertensive peak occurred during the third trimester of pregnancy. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain showed posterior reversible encephalopathy. PRES should be suspected in patients with any sign of neurological disorder. It has a favorable outcome without sequelae under early and fast treatment.
