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 report a patient's challenging case who suffered two acute ischaemic strokes, first in the right occipital lobe and later in the right dorsolateral thalamus (with affection of the lateral geniculate nucleus) who developed a yellow-tinted left homonymous visual hemi-field. No previously described case matched our peculiar symptom presentation in combination with the described brain lesions. Especially, the visual phenomena of patients with these brain lesions that were up until now described in literature were complex and vivid visual hallucinations. Here, we discuss possible explanations and mechanisms of this visual phenomenon (acquired hemidyschromatopsia, peduncular hallucinosis, focal epilepsy with visual symptoms, visual hallucinations) and in light of the current literature, we argue that the most likely explanation is a form of simple visual hallucination due to release phenomena (Charles Bonnet syndrome).
