A Case of Tolosa-Hunt Syndrome With Discoid Lupus Erythematosus.
Article in The Neurohospitalist, 2020. 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
The occurrence of Tolosa-Hunt syndrome (THS) in the setting of discoid lupus erythematosus (DLE) has not been previously reported. We report a case of a 55-year-old Chinese man with established cutaneous lupus who presented with 1 week of worsening blurry vision and ptosis of the left eye with severe headache 2 weeks prior to presentation. His cranial nerve examination was significant for left afferent pupillary defect, red desaturation, ptosis, and oculomotor nerve palsy. He also presented with active DLE lesions. Magnetic resonance imaging brain demonstrated asymmetric thickening and enhancement of the left cavernous sinus consistent with THS. After a 4-week gradual steroid taper his ophthalmoplegia resolved. The unusual occurrence of THS and DLE prompts consideration of nonsystemic autoimmune disorders in diagnosis of THS.
