Wernicke's Encephalopathy in a Patient With Crohn's Disease: 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 2 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
The inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), including Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), are chronic inflammatory disorders of the intestine. Both are associated with intestinal and extra-intestinal manifestations (EIM). EIM are usually related to intestinal disease activity and may precede or develop concurrently with intestinal symptoms. Although they are well documented, the association of CD with neurological and neuromuscular involvement is rare and controversial, with sporadic and contradictory data regarding its prevalence and spectrum. Neurological involvement can affect the central or peripheral nervous system, with thrombotic events being the most frequent complication. Wernicke's encephalopathy (WE) is one of the neurological complications that occurs in the general population with a clinical prevalence ranging from 0.04% to 0.13%. Although no specific data exists for IBD patients, it is imperative for clinicians to be vigilant and consider the possibility of this condition even with mild neurological symptoms and to administer vitamin B1 promptly before attempting any biological assessment. Timely treatment is essential to avoid irreversible damage or even the death of the patient. We report herein a challenging case of WE in CD and we discuss the literature.
