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

Chorea is a hyperkinetic movement disorder associated with various underlyingconditions, including autoimmune diseases such as antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). APS can manifest with a wide range of neurological symptoms, including chorea. We present a case of a 77-year-old man with subacute generalized chorea secondary to primary APS. Notably, the patient exhibited a left patellar crossed-reflex, a phenomenon rarely documented in chorea cases, the pathophysiology of which has not yet been elucidated. In summary, this case challenges the traditional demographics of antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) by suggesting a potential link between APS and late-age patients. It emphasizes the importance of considering APS in late-onset chorea cases.
