Pediatric Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome Secondary to Post-Streptococcal Glomerulonephritis: A Case Report.

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
This case report presents a unique case of a 15-year-old male with post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis (PSGN) who developed posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES). The patient presented with symptoms of fever, headache, emesis, visual disturbances, and involuntary movements of all four limbs. On examination, the patient had elevated blood pressure, decreased visual acuity of the left eye, leukocytosis, and uremia. MRI findings showed symmetrical enhancement of superficial and deep watershed areas, predominantly in the occipital and temporal regions. Treatment with antibiotics and anti-hypertensives resulted in the complete resolution of hyperintense lesions seen in brain MRI after three weeks, and the patient remained symptom-free for one month. This case highlights the rare association between PSGN and PRES and emphasizes the importance of monitoring and managing hypertension in patients with PSGN. Understanding the association between these two conditions may lead to earlier diagnosis and treatment of PRES, ultimately improving patient outcomes.
