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

Cerebral malaria is associated with high mortality and morbidity in patients infected with Plasmodium Falciparum. The mechanisms of cerebral malaria include sequestration of parasitized red blood cells in brain capillaries, production of cytokines, immune cell/platelet accumulation, and release of microparticles, resulting in disruption of the blood-brain barrier, which caused brain injuries. The severity of this reflects on neurological findings ranging from simple delirium to profound coma. We herein present unique magnetic resonance imaging findings of a case of fulminant cerebral malaria as computed tomography studies usually underestimate the extent of cerebral involvement in malaria.
