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

It was in December 2019 that the coronavirus causing COVID-19 was first detected in Wuhan, China. Although the primary clinical presentation is respiratory disease, an increasing number of reports worldwide have noted various neurological manifestations, such as acute encephalitis. We present a case of a 49-year-old female admitted with afebrile impaired consciousness, diagnosed with acute encephalitis and a severe infection of COVID-19. Clinical and radiological improvement was observed following treatment with corticosteroids.
