Report of a Case of Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease With an Unusual Quick Evolution.
Article in Cureus, 2022. 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
Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease is a rare, transmissible neurodegenerative disorder, most prevalent between the ages of 50 and 70 years old, that is incurable and fatal. It's caused by a slow, infectious protein agent-designated prion. The most common clinical presentations are sleep disturbances, personality changes, ataxia, aphasia, visual disturbances, weakness, and myoclonus combined with progressive dementia. Here we report the case of a patient with disturbance of consciousness, restlessness, and myoclonia who died two weeks after admission. The analysis of his cerebrospinal fluid reveals that the presence of 14-3-3 protein was positive, which supports the diagnosis of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. Our observation underscores the importance of the quick fatality of this case.
