Cerebral Venous Thrombosis Mimicking Limbic Encephalitis.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is challenging to diagnose, as it presents with variable symptoms. We encountered a complicated case of CVT that mimicked limbic encephalitis due to sensory aphasia. Based on the characteristic magnetic resonance imaging findings, this 72-year-old Japanese man was later confirmed to have CVT, the cause of which was periodontitis due to Eikenella corrodens, a Gram-negative facultative anaerobic that is part of the mouth's normal flora. The symptoms improved without sequelae following anticoagulation treatment and antibiotics. Clinicians should consider CVT as a differential diagnosis when unexplainable neurological symptoms suggesting limbic encephalitis are observed.
