1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Anti-metabotropic glutamate receptor 1 (mGluR1) encephalitis is a rare autoimmune disorder manifesting with cerebellar syndrome. Patients with mGluR1 encephalitis have been treated with immunomodulatory therapies; however, little is known about the efficacy of this therapy. A 58-year-old Japanese woman presented with dizziness when walking and standing up. Symptoms persisted and the patient gradually deteriorated. The neurological examination revealed a broad-based gait, horizontal and slightly gaze-evoked nystagmus, noticeable head titubation, and truncal ataxia without limb ataxia. Magnetic resonance imaging was normal. The
