Unusual Distribution of Cerebral Venous Thrombosis in a Patient With Sickle Cell Disease: A Case Study.
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
This study presents the case of a 29-year-old Bahraini woman with a known history of sickle cell disease who exhibited acute neurological symptoms. Advanced imaging, specifically CT and MRI, identified cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT). The patient was managed with fluid therapy and anticoagulation, and received a packed red blood cell transfusion, leading to a complete recovery. Notably, this case was marked by the patient's positive anti-double stranded DNA (anti-dsDNA) status, typically linked with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), adding a potential pro-coagulant factor. The occlusion pattern, particularly involving the internal cerebral veins, was unique compared to other reviewed CVT cases in patients with sickle cell disease. This case emphasizes the significance of early diagnosis and intervention in CVT, especially in patients with sickle cell disease and other predisposing factors.
