Wernicke-Korsakoff Syndrome as a Consequence of Hyperemesis Gravidarum: 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. Cited by 3 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
Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome (WKS) is caused by severe thiamine (vitamin B1) deficiency and can lead to chronic deficits. In this case, a 22-year-old pregnant patient at 10 1/7 weeks of gestation presented to the emergency department with malaise, asthenia, headache, weakness, vomiting, and weight loss of 12 kg. Pancreatitis and hepatic steatosis were considered but ruled out, and cholecystolithiasis was confirmed by ultrasound. After significant neurological deterioration, the patient underwent a cranial MRI that revealed suggestive findings in the thalamus consistent with WKS. WKS is a rare complication of hyperemesis gravidarum and should be included in the differential diagnosis of persistent vomiting in order to initiate early and appropriate treatment.
