Cardioembolic Stroke Due to Cardiac Sarcoidosis Diagnosed by Pathological Evaluation of the Retrieved Thrombus.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
A 70-year-old woman undergoing glucocorticoid therapy for cardiac sarcoidosis was brought to our hospital with the sudden onset of right hemiplegia and aphasia. Brain magnetic resonance imaging showed a high diffusion-weighted imaging signal in the left frontotemporal lobe and disruption of blood flow in the M1 segment of the left middle cerebral artery. Hence, she underwent thrombolysis and mechanical thrombectomy, resulting in marked improvement in her neurological symptoms. A pathologic evaluation of the thrombus suggested its cardiogenicity, and the absence of any obvious abnormality other than a left ventricular aneurysm indicated stroke due to a cardioembolic etiology secondary to cardiac sarcoidosis.
