Case Report and Literature Analysis: Guillain-Barré Syndrome With Delayed Unilateral Facial Palsy.
Article in Frontiers in neurology, 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
Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is an acute inflammatory polyradiculoneuropathy in which most patients have cranial nerve involvement, with facial nerve involvement being the most common. However, delayed facial palsy (DFP) with asymmetric facial palsy is a rare manifestation of GBS, and the mechanism is unclear. We report a case of GBS combined with delayed unilateral facial palsy and review previously reported cases of GBS combined with DFP. A total of 28 cases of GBS with DFP, including the case in this report, were included in this study. The occurrence of DFP may be related to early subclinical demyelination of the facial nerve, the blood-nerve barrier of the facial nerve, facial movement, and descending reversible paralysis. The occurrence of unilateral facial palsy may be related to
