Acute Hepatitis E-Associated Guillain-Barré Syndrome.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is a rare autoimmune disorder of the peripheral nervous system that causes progressive weakness and sensory disturbances, usually following an infection or immunization. It has been associated with multiple causes, including bacterial and viral infections. Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is a common cause of acute viral hepatitis that can rarely develop neurological complications. We report a case of a 72-year-old man who developed GBS secondary to an acute HEV infection. He presented with numbness and weakness of the lower limbs that rapidly evolved into respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation and intravenous immunoglobulin therapy (IVIg). This case adds to the literature on the association between HEV infection and GBS and the importance of early detection of this rapidly progressive condition.
