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

Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is considered a neuroclinical syndrome of headache, confusion, visual changes, and seizures associated with neuroimaging findings of posterior cerebral white matter edema. Although the incidence of the syndrome is largely unknown, this condition is becoming increasingly recognized. The prognosis is generally good with most symptoms resolving within one week and lesions on imaging resolving in two weeks. Death and significant neurological disability have been reported but are relatively rare. In this report, we present a 10-day postpartum patient with an atypical history of headache and seizure-like activity. Neuroimaging revealed findings consistent with PRES as well as a rare complication of subarachnoid hemorrhage. This case highlights the importance of clinicians considering preeclampsia/eclampsia-induced PRES when encountering a postpartum patient with headache and hypertension to further reduce morbidity and mortality in this patient population.
