1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Cases of severe central nervous system (CNS) complications have been reported in relation to coronavirus-19 (COVID-19). Cases of encephalitis have been reported primarily in older patients with multiple comorbidities. We present a case of encephalitis in a young female patient with a history of chronic marijuana use that presented with nausea, vomiting, and acute altered mental status. Extensive testing for infectious and autoimmune causes of encephalitis were negative, except for a positive COVID-19 test. She was treated with steroids and intravenous immune globulin (IVIG) and improved with residual mutism.
