A Case of Seronegative Pediatric Neurobrucellosis Presenting With Ataxia.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Neurobrucellosis is an uncommon and dangerous complication of brucellosis. Meningitis is the most common presentation of neurobrucellosis, but it may present in a wide range of clinical manifestations such as myelitis, brain abscess, radiculopathy, and cranial nerve involvement. It tends to present insidiously with symptoms appearing gradually. Acute presentation of neurobrucellosis is very uncommon. Here, we report a case of a female child who presented with an acute onset of ataxia and slurred speech with positive cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and neuroimaging findings for neurobrucellosis. In endemic countries such as Saudi Arabia, neurobrucellosis should be considered as a differential diagnosis for patients presenting with unexplained neurological symptoms.
