Presentation of Dyke-Davidoff-Masson Syndrome in adult male.
Review in Neurosciences (Riyadh, Saudi Arabia), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Dyk-Davidoff-Masson Syndrome (DDMS) is one of the rare neurological conditions attributed to the development of drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE). The DDMS condition is characterized by cerebral hemisphere asymmetry, where atrophy occurs on one side of the brain and clinically manifests as hemiparesis, seizure disorder, mental retardation, and facial asymmetry. In addition, the condition has various perinatal or postnatal etiologies. Herein, we report the case of a 29-year-old right-handed male with Dyke-Davidoff Masson syndrome and mild right-side weakness. The patient experiences attacks of seizures with stiffness in his right arm and right leg, sometimes experiencing agitation and abnormal movement of the body parts. The MRI of the brain showed asymmetry with atrophic changes involving the left hippocampus, consisting of mesial temporal sclerosis. Additionally, the results showed the presence of gyral hyperintensities over the left parietal region. Therefore, the patient's case is reported with a literature review to support it.
