Unilateral Autoimmune Encephalitis: A Case Report on a Rare Manifestation of Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antibody Disease.
Article in Cureus, 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
Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG)-associated disease (MOGAD) is a rare, antibody-mediated inflammatory demyelinating disorder of the central nervous system (CNS) that has varying phenotypes. FLAIR (fluid-attenuated inversion recovery)-hyperintense Lesions in Anti-MOG-associated Encephalitis with Seizures (FLAMES) is a much rarer manifestation of cortical encephalitis encountered in MOGAD. We report a rare case of a nine-year-old girl who presented with a drop in her academic performance and right-sided Epilepsia partialis continua. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain detected evidence for unilateral (left) cortical encephalitis with peri-ictal juxtacortical edema. An electroencephalogram revealed a hemi-generalized poly spike and wave discharges in the left hemisphere, several of which correlated with myoclonic jerks. The cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis was normal. Autoimmune workup resulted in a positive serum MOG-immunoglobulin G (IgG), which confirmed the diagnosis of FLAMES. The child showed an excellent clinical response to intravenous methylprednisolone and intravenous immunoglobulins therapy.
