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

Guillain-Barré syndrome is the most common acute inflammatory demyelinating peripheral nerve condition. Occasionally, other autoimmune conditions can mimic Guillain-Barré syndrome but may require different diagnostic workup and treatment. We report here two patients with Evans syndrome, a rare hematological autoimmune condition who developed a subacute inflammatory radiculopathy. Similarities and distinguishing clinical and diagnostic features are discussed.
