Primary CNS vasculitis: insights into clinical, neuropathological, and neuroradiological characteristics.
Article in Frontiers in neurology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Background and objectives: Primary CNS vasculitis (PCNSV) is a rare inflammatory disorder that affects the blood vessels of the central nervous system (CNS). We aimed to analyze the neurological presentations, clinical follow-up, and long-term outcomes of patients with primary central nervous system vasculitis. Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of medical records to assess the neurological presentation, rate of remission, and functional status at the last follow-up in patients with primary central nervous system vasculitis seen in our center in the last 13 years (2010-2023). Results: We identified five patients, whose median age at symptom onset was 31 years (range: 15-41 years), including four male individuals (80%) from Muslim Arab ( Discussion: The study on PCNSV highlights varied symptoms and diagnostic challenges, including delayed diagnosis and a spectrum of neurological issues from cognitive impairments to seizures. Brain biopsies showed lymphocytic infiltration, thrombi, and necrosis. Immunotherapy significantly improved clinical and radiological outcomes. Over 56 months of follow-up, outcomes varied from stability and deterioration to improvement.
