Neuropathological evidence for neurosarcoidosis is more widespread than imaging suggests.

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
We present a single case of a 47 year old male with a relapsing progressive neurological disease characterised by an infiltrative inflammation of the brain and leptomeninges. Investigations revealed the presence of systemic sarcoidosis which was confirmed histologically following a mediastinal lymph node biopsy. The imaging appearances of the brain and spinal canal lesions were compatible with neurological involvement by the same disease. Despite treatment, the patient deteriorated and died. We present the neuropathological findings, correlate these with the imaging features, and find that neuropathological evidence for disease was in this case strikingly more widespread than predicted by imaging ante-mortem.
