Encephalitis Associated With SARS-CoV-2 Infection in a Child With Chiari Malformation Type I.
Article in In vivo (Athens, Greece). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
BACKGROUND/
aimThere is increasing evidence that patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 develop neurological manifestations such as encephalitis. The purpose of this article was to present a case of viral encephalitis associated with SARS-CoV-2 in a 14-year-old child with Chiari malformation type I. CASE REPORT: The patient manifested frontal headache, nausea, vomiting, skin pallor, right side Babinski sign and was diagnosed with Chiari malformation type I. He was admitted with generalized seizures and suspected encephalitis. Brain inflammation and viral RNA in the cerebrospinal fluid suggested SARS-CoV-2 encephalitis. These findings indicate that the SARS-CoV-2 test in CSF of patients with neurological manifestations, confusion, and fever during the COVID-19 pandemic should be carried out even when there is no evidence of respiratory infection. To our knowledge, this presentation of encephalitis associated with COVID-19 has not yet been reported in a patient with a congenital syndrome such as Chiari malformation type I.
conclusionFurther clinical data are needed to determine the complications of encephalitis due to SARS-CoV-2 in patients with Chiari malformation type I to standardize diagnosis and treatment.
