Development of Parkinsonism in a Patient with Central Pontine Myelinolysis.
Article in Neurology international, 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
Osmotic demyelination syndrome (ODS) is caused by damage to the pons myelin sheath and nerve cells. Although the pathophysiological mechanism responsible for the damage is not yet fully understood, it is currently believed that osmotic-type changes (especially if they are massive and too rapid) cause oedema that leads to compression and, subsequently, demyelination of white matter fibres. It generally manifests with acute paraparesis/tetraparesis, dysphagia, dysarthria, diplopia, and loss of consciousness, as well as hallucinations, spasms, and other neurological symptoms related to brainstem damage. In extreme cases, the locked-in syndrome may also appear. Of note, in some cases an association between osmotic demyelinating damage and the onset of movement disorders has been documented and, although the pathophysiology is still unknown, a correlation has been postulated between ODS and movement disorders. Here, we present a patient with ODS who developed parkinsonism, thus supporting the hypothesis of a correlation between these pathological events.
