Autoimmune Encephalitis With Autoimmune Diabetes: A Case of Horror Autotoxicus.
Article in Cureus, 2023. 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
Diagnosing autoimmune encephalitis relies on clinical, radiological, and serological studies. Several autoantibodies have been implicated and recognized, with dozens of potential targets identified in the past 20 years. Despite that progress, some patients with encephalitis present a diagnostic dilemma with a seronegative status. The presence of other autoimmune diseases in a patient with encephalitis should provide a clue to the autoimmune nature of a developing neurological syndrome (cognitive, psychiatric, behavioral, and catatonia). In this report, we describe the case of a young man with type 1 diabetes mellitus who was diagnosed with seronegative autoimmune encephalitis after presenting with catatonia. We describe the lengthy clinical course, the various therapeutic trials, and his clinical outcome and response to B-cell depleting agent. This study also discusses the potential pathophysiologic pathways, providing a rationale for the diagnostic workup and therapeutic options for autoimmune encephalopathy in this case presentation.
