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

Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) is an acute and rapidly progressive auto-immune demyelinating disorder in the central nervous system. It is a rare disease but is more frequently observed in the pediatric population. We report a case of a monophasic postvaccination ADEM, which presented with paraparesis associated with fever. It showed a favorable evolution under corticosteroids, without recurrence after 3 years of follow-up. The diagnosis was established due to the postvaccination context and the MRI abnormalities characteristics. This case prompted a general discussion about the etiologies of myelin insults in children, especially demyelinating disorders, by shedding the light on their MRI features.
