1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

We describe a girl in middle childhood with newly diagnosed Crohn's disease, who presented with seizures and altered mental status. MRI showed an abnormal vascular signal at the basilar artery, but no evidence of acute ischaemia. Her weakness worsened over the next 8 hours to dense quadriplegia. CT angiography of the brain, approximately 24 hours after the initial onset of symptoms, identified an acute basilar artery occlusion with infarction. She received endovascular thromboembolectomy emergently. She showed significant improvement over 8-month period from quadriplegia to walking unassisted. This case highlights the importance of recognising stroke in patients with inflammatory bowel disease and the need for emergent radiological assessment and potential intervention.
