A case report of leukemoid reaction in a child with severe diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and cerebral edema: When rarity and complexity meet.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Key Clinical Message: In pediatrics, a leukemoid reaction in severe DKA cases with cerebral edema has never been reported. The fluid management was challenging as it required balancing rates to ensure improvement of the condition while preventing neurological sequelae. Abstract: The combination of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), cerebral edema, and leukemoid reaction in pediatrics has never been reported before in the literature. It may lead to significant morbidity and high mortality. Here, we report a case of DKA-induced cerebral edema associated with severe leukocytosis (WBC 98 × 10
