Anti-NMDAr Encephalitis and COVID-19 in a Patient With Systemic pANCA-Vasculitis and Recurrent Varicella Zoster Infection.
Article in The Neurohospitalist, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Introduction: There is a complex interplay between systemic autoimmunity, immunosuppression, and infections. Any or all of these can result in neurologic manifestations, requiring diligence on the part of neurologists. Case report: We herein report a case of a patient on immunosuppressive treatment for a vasculitis that resulted in zoster meningoencephalitis. This was further complicated by the development of anti-NMDAr encephalitis, the etiology of which is undetermined and further discussed in this paper. The patient eventually developed COVID-19 during hospitalization, succumbing to the respiratory infection. Conclusion: This case emphasizes that post-infectious autoimmune disorders are becoming increasingly recognized and that they should still be considered in patients who are on immunosuppression. Practitioners should be aware of the complex relationship between autoimmunity and immunosuppression and consider both throughout the disease course.
