Long-term risk of seizure after posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome.
Article in Annals of clinical and translational neurology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectivePatients with posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) can develop seizures during the acute phase. We sought to determine the long-term risk of seizure after PRES.
methodsWe performed a retrospective cohort study using statewide all-payer claims data from 2016-2018 from nonfederal hospitals in 11 US states. Adults admitted with PRES were compared to adults admitted with stroke, an acute cerebrovascular disorder associated with long-term risk of seizure. The primary outcome was seizure diagnosed during an emergency room visit or hospital admission after the index hospitalization. The secondary outcome was status epilepticus. Diagnoses were determined using previously validated ICD-10-CM codes. Patients with seizure diagnoses before or during the index admission were excluded. We used Cox regression to evaluate the association of PRES with seizure, adjusting for demographics and potential confounders.
resultsWe identified 2095 patients hospitalized with PRES and 341,809 with stroke. Median follow-up was 0.9 years (IQR, 0.3-1.7) in the PRES group and 1.0 years (IQR, 0.4-1.8) in the stroke group. Crude seizure incidence per 100 person-years was 9.5 after PRES and 2.5 after stroke. After adjustment for demographics and comorbidities, patients with PRES had a higher risk of seizure than patients with stroke (HR, 2.9; 95% CI, 2.6-3.4). Results were unchanged in a sensitivity analysis that applied a two-week washout period to mitigate detection bias. A similar relationship was observed for the secondary outcome of status epilepticus.
interpretationPRES was associated with an increased long-term risk of subsequent acute care utilization for seizure compared to stroke.
