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

COVID-19 infections have a broad spectrum of severity, with more severe symptoms observed in elderly patients, patients with underlying comorbidities, and patients with unvaccinated status. This case series aims to highlight two cases of unvaccinated patients who developed COVID-19 encephalopathy, contrasted with a vaccinated patient with similar risk factors. This article highlights the unique characteristics of COVID-19 encephalopathy to guide clinicians while approaching the broad diagnosis of acute encephalopathy or altered mental state in hospitalized patients. Current literature was reviewed and summarized the information available regarding encephalopathy separate from the more complex encephalitis and encephalomyelitis.
