Atypical and isolated posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome in postpartum without preeclampsia: a case report.
Article in The Pan African medical journal, 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
Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is a neurological complication frequently found during brain exploration for severe preeclampsia when it is associated with neurological signs. Being a newly discovered entity, its mechanism of genesis is still based on a hypothesis not yet confirmed. The clinical case that we report highlights an atypical PRES syndrome occurring in postpartum without any signs of preeclampsia. The patient had suffered a state of convulsive dysfunction after delivery without hypertension and the diagnosis of PRES syndrome was confirmed based on the results of the brain computed tomography (CT) scan, she showed signs of clinical improvement on the fifth day of postpartum. Our case report calls into question the association between PRES syndrome and preeclampsia that we find in literature and puts a big question mark on the causal link between the two in pregnant women.
