A Recipe for Delirium: Community-Acquired Pneumonia and Sickle Cell Anemia With Moyamoya Disease.
Article in Cureus, 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
Moyamoya disease (MMD) is a rare, progressive cerebrovascular disorder that occurs when the major arteries supplying the brain become narrowed or obstructed. Because of this, small and delicate collateral vessels develop to compensate for the decrease in blood flow. Unfortunately, these vessels are insufficient to meet the brain's metabolic demands. Though initially described in Japan, MMD occurs in a variety of ethnicities around the world. The clinical manifestations of the disease can be devastating, with patients often presenting with symptoms of a stroke or transient ischemic attack. The long history of insults and chronic changes to the brain makes these individuals susceptible to alterations in their mental status. We describe a case of a young African American female with a history of sickle cell anemia (SCA) and undiagnosed MMD who presented to the emergency department with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). In addition to her medical derangements, she also presented with paranoia, delusional guilt, and refusal to speak.
