Concurrent Longitudinal Extensive Transverse Myelitis and Leptomeningitis in West Nile Virus: A Report of a Rare Case.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Here we report a rare case with concurrent longitudinal extensive transverse myelitis (LETM) and leptomeningitis due to West Nile virus infection. A 47-year-old man initially presented with a six-day progressive, intermittent low-grade fever, headache, diplopia, malaise, myalgia, lower back pain, and difficulty walking that developed into progressive asymmetric paralysis. Initial lab work was notable for mild lactic acidosis and hyperCKemia. Brain MRI with contrast demonstrated small foci of leptomeningeal enhancement in the cerebellum, pons, medulla, and right CN VI at the cisternal segment. MRI of the spine was remarkable for edema in the spinal cord extending from T
