Hashimoto Encephalopathy of a Middle-Aged Man With Progressive Symptoms of Dementia.

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
Autoimmune encephalitis is caused by immunological reactions showing unconsciousness, agitation, and other neurological symptoms. Autoimmune diseases can be related to autoantibodies, causing encephalitis. These autoantibody-related encephalitides could appear in various clinical courses. As laboratory tests for detecting these antibodies are limited, diagnosis is difficult. Hashimoto's encephalopathy is autoimmune encephalitis caused by antibodies against the thyroid gland. This time, we experienced a case of a 69-year-old man with a chief complaint of subacute progression of amnesia and suspected autoimmune encephalitis, who was finally diagnosed with Hashimoto's encephalopathy in a rural community hospital. In this case, clinicians should consider Hashimoto's encephalopathy as a differential diagnosis and measure antithyroid antibodies when acute or subacute onset cognitive impairment is observed in middle-aged patients. As a super-aging society significantly affects community hospitals, general physicians need to start treatments for encephalopathy and encephalitis when clinicians suspect the disease and rule out other critical diseases.
