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

Ping-pong gaze, a rare neurological phenomenon characterized by pendular, rhythmic oscillations of the eyes, is explored in a unique clinical context. A 40-year-old male with a history of chronic pancreatitis, type two diabetes mellitus, and chronic alcoholism presented with hypoglycemic coma and synchronous horizontal eye movements indicative of ping-pong gaze. Radiological assessments hinted at cerebral infarction or posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES). Despite aggressive intensive care management, the patient's condition deteriorated, highlighting the intricate challenge of managing hypoglycemic coma amidst brain pathology, metabolic disorders, and chronic alcoholism. This exceptional case underscores the need for prompt recognition of ping-pong gaze, comprehensive care, and further investigation into its underlying medical conditions.
