Cerebral abscess as a neurosurgical emergency in Eisenmenger syndrome: illustrative case.
Article in Journal of neurosurgery. Case lessons, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundEisenmenger syndrome caused by severe pulmonary arterial hypertension in congenital heart disease can cause multisystemic involvement and is a risk factor for development of cerebral abscess. Cerebral abscess, if not detected and treated in a timely manner, can present as acute neurosurgical emergency. OBSERVATIONS: The authors reported a case of cerebral abscess in a patient with Eisenmenger syndrome. The patient presented with acute neurological deterioration with mass effect and cerebral infarcts and received emergency neurosurgical intervention. A further literature search was done to identify prior reported cases of cerebral abscess with Eisenmenger syndrome. LESSONS: Patients with Eisenmenger syndrome have compromised cardiorespiratory status, and decision for neurosurgical intervention should be given careful consideration. Multidisciplinary team management along with preoperative optimization of the patient should be used.
