Fulminant Neurologic Manifestation of Sjogren's Syndrome: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Sjogren's syndrome (SS) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by the destruction of exocrine glands by lymphocytic infiltration. Children and teenagers are less commonly affected. The initial symptoms of SS in teenagers might vary, depending on whether parotitis or other systemic organ involvement is present. Glandular involvement with the clinical hallmarks of dry eyes and dry mouth is common. Our case report is about a young woman who was admitted with acute flaccid paralysis and severe respiratory distress with extremely low serum potassium; further investigation revealed distal renal tubular acidosis. The patient was ultimately diagnosed with primary SS with high levels of SS-a/SS-b antibodies and a positive Schirmer's test. Our case demonstrates that hypokalemic paralysis can be a manifestation of SS, even though it is a rare cause.
