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

Chronic lymphocytic inflammation with pontine perivascular enhancement responsive to steroids is a very rare entity which is considered as a treatable condition. In some cases, clinical and radiological findings, associated to favorable evolution on steroids therapy can be sufficiently distinguishable to diagnose chronic lymphocytic inflammation with pontine perivascular enhancement responsive to steroids. We report the case of a 50-year-old man, suffering from acute dizziness with right facial paralysis and limited ocular abduction with his magnetic resonance imaging showing large confluent T2 and fluid-attenuated inversion recovery brainstem hyperintensities extending into the upper cervical spinal cord, infiltrating the basal ganglia and the thalami, with some punctate hyperintensities "peppering" the medial aspects of cerebellar hemispheres. This case illustrates atypical imaging features of chronic lymphocytic inflammation with pontine perivascular enhancement responsive to steroids on magnetic resonance imaging and our work also reviews different studies in the literature and highlights the differential diagnosis.
