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
Objective: To show a patient with a diagnosis of primary vasculitis of the nervous system and review this entity's literature. Clinical case: Male 32 years, with two events; first, with a transient monoparesis of the right upper extremity, improve with steroids in days. Now, with a motor Jacksonian progression from the upper to the lower right extremities and generalized seizures. After; aphasia, right hemiparesis, and delirium. In the antiresonance, the finding of multiple arterial cerebral "beading." With an in-depth study, the diagnosis of primary cerebral vasculitis was made. The management with levetiracetam, steroids, and Azathioprine offers a satisfactory evolution. Discussion: The primary CNS vasculitis is an exclusion diagnosis, with angio-MRI is possible to suspect it, but it is always obligate to discard a secondary etiology by infection, systemic diseases, neoplasia, and drugs. Conclusion: Although this problem is infrequent, we must consider this possibility. Opportune treatment can restore the quality of life.
