1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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 immune-mediated polyneuropathy classically thought to be caused by infections through the process of molecular mimicry. We report a case of GBS caused by intracerebral haemorrhage and postulate potential theories for the development of GBS following intracerebral haemorrhage and other non-infectious aetiologies by association. We highlight that GBS is an important differential diagnosis in patients developing generalised paresis following intracerebral haemorrhage.
