Chronic Lymphocytic Inflammation with Pontine Perivascular Enhancement Responsive to Steroids (CLIPPERS Syndrome): A Case Report and Literature Review.
Article in Case reports in neurological medicine, 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
CLIPPERS is a rare, chronic inflammatory neurological syndrome affecting multiple regions of the brain including the brainstem, cerebellum, and spinal cord. More than 100 cases have been documented globally since its initial description in 2010. This article reports the first case of the CLIPPERS syndrome in Nepal. Clinical and radiological evidences of the patient lead to the diagnosis of this disease. Brain MRI reveals punctate and curvilinear gadolinium enhancement in the pons and cerebellum, which is diagnostic for the disease. Steroid therapy has been reported to be effective in treating CLIPPERS syndrome. Although its pathophysiology indicates an immune-mediated process, the etiology is yet unknown. The treatment and prognosis of this illness depend on an early and accurate diagnosis.
