Homonymous Hemianopsia Due to the Infarction in the Splenium of the Corpus Callosum.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The precise functions of the splenium of the corpus callosum (CC) remain unclear, and infarction of this location manifests varied clinical symptoms. We describe a rare case of right homonymous hemianopsia resulting from pure infarction in the right-side splenium of the CC. An 85-year-old man presented with right homonymous hemianopsia lasting for a week. Diffusion-weighted imaging showed a high-intensity area in the right-side splenium of the CC and did not show any other lesions in other portions of the visual pathways. Magnetic resonance angiography demonstrated anterior and posterior cerebral arteries, indicating that no large vessel occlusion existed. The visual field examination revealed right homonymous hemianopsia. The diagnosis was atherothrombotic infarction in the splenium of the CC, which resulted in right homonymous hemianopsia. Two months later, T2-weighted imaging showed a high-intensity lesion localizing the right-side splenium with shrinkage of the lesion compared to that on the acute phase, and his visual field was slightly improved. There are few reports on the splenial infarction of the CC, and this is the first case manifesting as homonymous hemianopsia, to our knowledge. Our case might help to understand complicated visual information processing involving the splenium of the CC.
