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

In recent years, research has increasingly focused on inflammatory processes as a trigger for psychiatric illnesses. Contrary to previous suggestions, clinical pictures with psychiatric features only also can occur, leading to erroneous diagnoses and treatments. We describe the case of a patient who was initially diagnosed paranoid schizophrenia on the basis of the clinical presentation. Antipsychotic treatment was frequently discontinued by the patient also due to inadequate response. After intensifying the diagnostic procedures autoimmune thyroiditis oft he Hashimoto type was detected in the patient. Excluding the other causes, Hashimoto's encephalopathy was considered as a differential diagnosis. The patient agreed to a therapeutic attempt with cortison leading to complete remission of psychotic symptoms thus confirming the diagnosis of steroid-responsive encephalopathy associated with autoimmune thyroiditis.
