Non-alcoholic Wernicke Encephalopathy in a Young Patient with Adenocarcinoma of the Colon: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.
Review in Reviews on recent clinical trials, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionWernicke Encephalopathy (W.E.) is an acute neurological disorder induced by thiamine deficiency. Alcohol abuse is considered to be the leading cause of the disease; however, numerous other conditions, such as malnutrition or cancer, have been identified as potential risk factors. CASE PRESENTATION: Clinical manifestations include a typical triad of mental status alteration, nystagmus, and ataxia and are attributed to damage in brain regions of high thiamine demand. The diagnosis is mainly clinical and further supported by the immediate response of neurological signs to parenteral thiamine administration. Among paraclinical examinations, brain MRI is considered substantial for diagnosis and is supported by the determination of thiamine blood levels.
conclusionNon-alcoholic W.E. is trickier to diagnose due to its atypical clinical course and risk factors. We herein describe a case of non-alcoholic W.E. in a woman with colon cancer who gradually developed the classic symptoms of thiamine deficiency.
