1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

We herein report a patient with neuronal intranuclear inclusion disease (NIID) who presented with encephalitis-like episodes. A neurological examination revealed a disturbance of consciousness without any evidence of encephalitis or epilepsy on laboratory tests. Brain perfusion single-photon emission computed tomography revealed an elevated cerebral blood flow during the encephalitis-like episode and reduced cerebral blood flow in the chronic phase with clinical recovery. This report suggests that the cerebral blood flow of patients with NIID can change over the clinical course. Encephalitis-like episodes of NIID should thus be considered in the differential diagnosis of acute disturbance of consciousness.
