Recurrent Aseptic Meningitis Associated with Kikuchi's Disease (Histiocytic Necrotizing Lymphadenitis): A Case Report and Literature Review.
Review in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
We herein report a 31-year-old man with recurrent aseptic meningitis associated with Kikuchi's disease. Although aseptic meningitis is the most common neurological complication of Kikuchi's disease, its characteristics remain unclear, especially in recurrent cases. A literature review revealed that aseptic meningitis associated with Kikuchi's disease was more likely to occur in men and was associated with a low cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)/serum glucose ratio. Lymphadenopathy tended to occur simultaneously or after the onset of meningitis. When encountering a patient with aseptic meningitis of unknown etiology, it may be worthwhile to focus on the CSF/serum glucose ratio and lymphadenopathy with a careful examination.
