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

Saint Louis encephalitis virus (SLEV) infection is an arbovirosis associated with a broad spectrum of neurological complications. We present a case of a 55-year-old man hailing from Manaus, a city situated in the heart of the Amazon Rainforest, who exhibited symptoms of vertigo, tremors, urinary and fecal retention, compromised gait, and encephalopathy 3 weeks following SLEV infection. Neuroaxis MRI revealed diffuse, asymmetric, and poorly defined margins hyperintense lesions with peripheral and ring enhancement in subcortical white matter, as well as severe spinal cord involvement. Serology for SLEV was positive both on serum and cerebrospinal fluid. To the best of our knowledge, the present report is the first to show brain lesions along with myelitis as a post-infectious complication of SLEV infection.
