CLIPPERS: Multiparametric and quantitative MRI features.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Chronic lymphocytic inflammation with pontine perivascular enhancement responsive to steroids (CLIPPERS) is a rare chronic central-nervous-system inflammatory disorder that became known only recently, and the pathogenesis of CLIPPERS remains poorly understood. This report presents clinical and radiological features of a rare case: a young female patient who rapidly died of suspected CLIPPERS. Helpful multiparametric MRI diagnostic criteria are proposed that can help discriminate CLIPPERS from non-CLIPPERS pathologies. We reviewed clinical history, symptoms, quantitative data from brain multiparametric MRI before and after treatment, and histopathological data. Perfusion-weighted imaging revealed a decrease in regional cerebral blood flow by 31% and in cerebral blood volume by 64%, with a moderate increase in transit time and in time to peak by up to 23% in affected pontine and cerebral white matter. As estimated by diffusion tensor imaging, there was elevated density of tracts (n/mm
