Challenges in Grisel's Syndrome Management in a Two-Month-Old Infant.
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
Grisel's syndrome (GS) is a rare neurosurgical condition involving nontraumatic rotatory subluxation of the atlantoaxial joint. This case report presents a two-month-old infant girl, the youngest reported case of this syndrome based on our literature review to the date of this publication. The infant was initially referred to our hospital as a case of the arachnoid cyst but was subsequently neuroradiologically diagnosed with GS, which was believed to be secondary to a retropharyngeal abscess. After developing weakness and developmental delay as well as failing conservative management for two years, the infant underwent C1 laminectomy and occipitocervical sublaminar wire fusion with favorable outcomes. GS should be considered a differential even if the patient does not present with typical signs such as torticollis and neck pain. If not identified early and treated effectively, it can result in severe neurological damage. The management plan largely depends on the Fielding-Hawkins grade of subluxation and the timing of diagnosis.
