A Cerebrovascular Accident Presenting With Bilateral Vocal Cord Paresis.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Diagnosing a stroke requires careful attention to clinical indicators on physical exam, especially the more subtle manifestations of cerebellar lesions. An 85-year-old male with vascular risk factors and new-onset atrial fibrillation was admitted for left upper extremity weakness, headaches, and tremors. The patient developed stridor during hospitalization and was found to have a new cerebellar infarct with hemorrhagic transformation on computed tomography (CT) of the head, with laryngoscopy showing bilateral vocal cord paresis. While strokes outside of the cerebellum are a known cause of unilateral vocal cord paresis, cerebellar strokes are a rare culprit and rarely cause bilateral cord paresis. Consideration beyond the more common pulmonary and iatrogenic causes of vocal cord paresis should be considered, with particular attention to stroke.
