Acute necrotizing encephalopathy in an infant: A case report.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Acute necrotizing encephalopathy is a rare, severe neurological condition, characterized by symmetrical necrotic brain lesions affecting the thalamus, cerebral white matter, brain stem, and cerebellum. Diagnosis relies on characteristic clinical and radiological features. We describe a 10-month-old female infant presenting with multiple seizures following a brief febrile upper respiratory illness. MRI of the brain showed bilateral symmetrical abnormal signal intensities involving both thalami and caudate nucleus, consistent with ANE. Management of ANE is symptom-related but high-dose steroids and IVIG have been used. This case highlights the importance of recognizing ANE beyond its usual geographic distribution. Early recognition and prompt management help improve outcomes.
