Guillain-Barré Syndrome During the Postpartum Period.
Article in Cureus, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is an acute peripheral neuropathy that manifests with ascending symmetrical and progressive weakness or paralysis with the absence of reflexes. The incidence of this syndrome in pregnancy and postpartum periods is similar to the general population; however, few published clinical cases have been described. Here, we report the case of a 26-year-old patient who developed GBS with respiratory distress two weeks after her baby's delivery that required long-term mechanical ventilation. The patient's clinical conditions were significantly improved after the use of immunoglobulins and rehabilitation, and she was discharged. Physicians should be aware of the possibility of developing GBS during pregnancy and postpartum periods.
