Torticollis as a Sole Presentation of Spondyloarthritis in a 4-Year-Old Child.
Article in Clinical medicine & research, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Spondyloarthritis presents in various and occasionally unusual ways that imitates other diseases. Without forthcoming risk factors, such atypical presentation may elude diagnosis for months. The case presented here of a child, aged 4 years, who is negative for human leukocyte antigen B27 (HLA-B27) and with no family history of HLA-B27 related disease, who developed torticollis with neck pain and lymphadenopathy, highlights the necessity of continually evaluating a diagnosis, especially when treatment fails to produce expected results. Painful torticollis in a child with adenopathy often is infectious in nature or potentially due to Griesel syndrome when persistent. Chronic arthritis of the cervical spine may enter the differential diagnosis when torticollis is persistent, and early recognition and aggressive treatment is necessary to prevent permanent functional impairment.
