Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome in the pediatric population: a pictorial essay.
Article in Radiologia brasileira. 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
Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is a rare disease attributed to an increase in blood pressure that exceeds the autoregulatory capabilities of the cerebral vasculature, resulting in brain edema. Although PRES primarily affects adults, the pediatric population is also at risk. Radiologists must be aware of that risk because the imaging features on brain MRI are often atypical, especially in pediatric patients. Over a 6-year period, nine pediatric patients were diagnosed with PRES at our institution. Here, those patients are evaluated retrospectively regarding demographic characteristics, clinical profiles, imaging aspects, and outcomes. In this pictorial essay, we review the typical and atypical imaging findings of PRES in pediatric patients, demonstrating that it should be considered in patients with a clinical profile suggestive of the diagnosis, given that prompt, effective treatment is important for full recovery, thus avoiding major morbidity and mortality in such patients.
