Review in Journal of neurovirology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) can be associated with a wide variety of neurological manifestations. Some of these manifestations might result from the ongoing systemic inflammatory state, but the pathophysiology of specific neurologic involvement is still unclear. In this article, we report a patient who developed an isolated cerebellar syndrome 9 weeks after an episode of COVID-19. The reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) for SARS-CoV-2 was positive on cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). A post-infectious-autoimmune-cerebellitis following COVID-19 was suspected, and the patient was treated with corticosteroids, leading to a complete recovery within a few weeks. We review the other cases of COVID-19-associated cerebellar syndrome reported so far and discuss the potential pathophysiological mechanisms underlying this neurologic manifestation.
