Longitudinally Extensive Transverse Myelitis in a Patient With Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, Recent Influenza Infection, and Nutritional Deficiencies in the Setting of Chronic Alcohol Use.

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
Longitudinally extensive transverse myelitis (LETM) is traditionally classified as an inflammatory disorder of the spinal cord spanning three or more vertebral segments. The differential diagnosis for TM is vast and can include infectious, nutritional, and can even be idiopathic in some reported cases. However, autoimmune etiologies such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) can rarely present with neurological manifestations such as LETM. In this case report, we present a 33-year-old female with a prior history of SLE who developed an LETM in the setting of possible provoking factors such as nutritional deficiencies and a recent viral illness. In this case report, we highlight her clinical course, recovery, and working differential diagnosis after laboratory testing and neurological imaging. Finally, we discuss the different treatments that ultimately lead to her successful recovery after her prolonged clinical course.
