Cranial nerve palsies, SIADH and atrial fibrillation: a diagnostic challenge.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
We recently encountered a 79-year-old Caucasian man who presented with blurring of vision and facial muscle weakness. The patient also had hyponatraemia, atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response and underlying Brugada type II pattern. Urine and serum osmolality were consistent with syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH). It was only after extensive imaging and workup that we were able to tie together these three different presentations of Lyme disease-cranial nerve palsies, SIADH and atrial fibrillation and treat them accordingly. To the best of our knowledge, only eight cases of SIADH in patients with Lyme neuroborreliosis have been reported in the literature. Although our patient did not have a history of arrhythmias, case findings suggest that underlying Brugada type II morphology could have been the predisposing factor, and Lyme disease the trigger.
