Newly diagnosed PRES in a sickle cell diseased patient: a case report.
Article in Annals of medicine and surgery (2012), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Sickle cell disease has many clinical impacts, one such rare finding is systemic hypertension although the literature to support it is debatable. Hypertension along with other key components of sickle cell pathology is one of the reversible causes of posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES). Although its triggering factors and pathophysiology is not well documented, hypertension is one of the easily reversible causes of PRES. A well-controlled blood pressure is an aim for reversibility and future recurrence of PRES. However, the addition of other medications like anticonvulsants (levetiracetam and lacosamide) to prevent seizures as a consequence of PRES still remains debatable. Considering the case reported below, the addition of Hydroxyurea to the treatment can be another cause of the recurrence of PRES and needs to be weighed for its risks and benefits.
