Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome associated with probable drug poisoning.

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
Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS) is a clinical condition characterized by arterial involvement of the intracranial vessels, manifesting with vasospasm. The most common clinical manifestation related to the syndrome is the thunderclap headache, which consists of a severe headache that reaches the peak of pain within minutes. The imaging study assumes a leading role in the complementary investigation. Laboratory tests and cerebrospinal fluid analysis are often nonspecific and without significant diagnostic importance. Non-contrast studies of the brain parenchyma reveal variable results that can often be normal. Angiographic findings, which initially may not reveal any changes, allow the visualization of diffuse narrowing of the vessels, with the posterior cerebral circulation being preferentially affected. The present study reports the case of a 19-year-old woman with no relevant medical history, except that she was a regular user of marijuana and a drug based on chloroform and ether. The patient showed clinical and imaging signs compatible with RCVS, and the narcotics used by her were considered precipitating factors.
