Four kinds of antibody positive paraneoplastic limbic encephalitis: A rare case report.
Article in World journal of clinical cases, 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
backgroundIt is not uncommon to develop autoimmune encephalitis and paraneoplastic neurological syndromes (PNS). 4 kinds of antibody-positive autoimmune paraneoplastic limbic encephalitis (PLE) have not been reported. CASE SUMMARY: PNS are distant effects of cancer on the nervous system, rather than syndromes in which cancer directly invades and metastasizes to the nerves and/or muscle tissues. If the limbic lobe system of the brain is involved, this will result in PLE. The detection of patients with PNS is challenging since tumors that cause paraneoplastic neurologic disorders are often asymptomatic, obscure, and thus easily misdiagnosed or missed. Currently, single- or double-antibody-positive paraneoplastic marginal encephalitis has been reported. However, no cases of three or more-antibody-positive cases have been reported. Here, we report a case of PLE that is anti-collapsing response-mediator protein-5, anti-neuronal nuclear antibody-type 1, anti-aminobutyric acid B receptor, and anti-glutamate deglutase positive, and address relevant literature to improve our understanding of the disease.
conclusionThis article reports on the management of a case of PLE with four positive antibodies, a review of the literature, in order to raise awareness among clinicians.
