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

Steroid-responsive encephalopathy is a general term for diseases that are characterized by diffuse brain injury and respond well to corticosteroids or immunosuppressive agents, including Hashimoto's encephalopathy (HE), limbic encephalitis (LE), systemic lupus erythematosus encephalopathy (SLEE), antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA)-associated systemic vasculitis encephalopathy (AASV), viral encephalitis (VE), and primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL). Epilepsy and status epilepticus are the main manifestations of steroid-responsive encephalopathy. The spectrum of "autoimmune epilepsy" diseases, which has been approved by the epilepsy diagnostic recommendations of the International Antiepileptic League, is characterized by a high prevalence of epilepsy in central nervous system (CNS) autoimmune diseases and a variety of neuron-specific autoantibodies. Steroid-responsive encephalopathy with different causes may have different pathogeneses and has been suggested to be associated with some internal commonality producing seizure as the main symptom. Determining the regularity of seizures caused by steroid-responsive encephalopathy and implementing appropriate measures will help us improve the prognosis of patients. This paper summarizes the epidemiology, seizure onset, seizure type, and other characteristics of seizures in steroid-responsive encephalopathy (including HE, LE, SLEE, ANCA-associated systemic vasculitis encephalopathy, VE, and PCNSL) and then discusses the use of antiepileptic drugs to treat steroid-responsive encephalopathy.
