Gayet-Wernicke Encephalopathy: An Unusual Complication of Vomiting.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Gayet-Wernicke encephalopathy (WE) is a serious and acute disease of the central nervous system caused by thiamine (vitamin B1) deficiency. Multiple etiologies are indicated, although alcohol abuse is the most reported cause. If not treated promptly, WE can lead to serious complications such as Korsakoff's syndrome, coma, or death. This diagnosis should be considered even without a history of alcohol dependence. We describe two cases of non-alcohol related WE complicating vomiting caused by different etiologies. The diagnosis was suspected on clinical presentation and confirmed by brain MRI and effective response to parenteral administration of thiamine.
