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

Parsonage-Turner syndrome (PTS) is a non-traumatic disorder of the shoulder girdle, marked by sudden-onset neuropathic pain, spontaneous improvement, and progression to paralysis, muscle weakness, and atrophy. Various etiological factors have been linked to PTS. This clinical case report documents the development of PTS following dengue virus exposure. Laboratory tests, electromyography, and imaging studies ruled out other potential diseases. This report highlights dengue infection as a potential infectious trigger for PTS and discusses its clinical presentation, treatment, and prognosis through a narrative review of the case presented.
