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

Dysautonomia is a common and severe complication of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS), which may manifest as cardiac arrhythmias, labile blood pressure, diaphoresis, and changes in gastrointestinal motility. Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM) is a life-threatening manifestation of dysautonomia in patients with GBS, which is not widely underlined in the literature. The association between GBS and TCM has been well-documented in previous studies; however, there are few reported cases with GBS who developed TCM following their diagnosis with GBS. In this case report, we will discuss our experience treating a 59-year-old female patient who became hemodynamically unstable while recovering from an acute GBS infection. She was diagnosed with TCM after undergoing an echocardiogram and coronary angiogram ruling out thrombotic or obstructive coronary disease and myocarditis.
