Clinical characteristics of anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor encephalitis in patients with a long-term history of mental disorders.
Review in European journal of medical research, 2022. 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
backgroundAnti-N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor encephalitis is an autoimmune disorder characterized by complex neuropsychiatric syndromes during disease onset. Although this disease has been well documented in the last decade, clinical characteristics of anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis in patients with long-term diagnostic history of mental disorders remain unclear.
methodsHere, we reviewed and analyzed series of anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis patients with a long-term medical history of psychiatric disorders through a review of literature using PubMed, web of science and Embase database. In addition, we described a patient of anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis with a long-term history of major depressive disorder.
resultsA total of 14 patients with anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis and a long-term history of mental disorders were included in our study. We found that most patients were adult (92.9%) and female (78.6%). These patients often first visited a psychiatric department (71.43%). The mean disease course of psychiatric disorders was more than 9 years. Speech impairment (71.4%), abnormal behaviors (64.3%), and catatonia (64.3%) were the most common clinical symptoms. Most patients (85.7%) had a satisfactory prognosis after immunotherapy.
conclusionAnti-NMDA receptor encephalitis in individuals with mental disorders is an underestimated condition, yet it presents complex clinical symptoms. Mental and behavioral impairments are more frequently observed in newly diagnosed anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis patients with a long-term history of mental disorders than those without mental illness. A diagnosis of anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis should be considered when patients with mental illness show sudden fluctuations in psychiatric symptoms.
