Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Induced Central Variant of Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome: A Rare Association.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Involvement of the posterior cerebral structures is well established in patients with posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES). In striking contrast to this, a subset of patients may have an atypical presentation characterized by the involvement of central structures. This is usually seen in the backdrop of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), a rare but known cause of PRES. Timely diagnosis with judicious use of radiological modalities and therapeutic intervention is key for successful recovery; however, the prognosis of PRES in patients with SLE is not very promising. We are describing an extremely rare case of a patient diagnosed with a central variant of PRES with previously undiagnosed SLE.
