The known and unknown of post-pump chorea: a case report on robust steroid responsiveness implicating occult neuroinflammation.

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
Post-pump chorea (PPC) is characterized by the development of choreiform movements following cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) surgery. PPC occurs almost exclusively in children, and its pathophysiology remains unclear. Here we present an adult case of PPC after bovine aortic valve replacement (AVR) which exhibited dramatic and reproducible response to steroid, suggesting the presence of occult neuroinflammation. This observation suggests a novel underlying mechanism in certain subgroups of PPC, which is likely a heterogeneous condition to start with. Further research into the pathomechanisms of PPC could offer insights into managing this otherwise symptomatic control-only condition.
