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

Acute leukoencephalopathy with restricted diffusion (ALERD) is an emerging clinico-radiological syndrome marked by sudden onset encephalopathy and characteristic restricted diffusion in the subcortical white matter on MRI. While typically linked to other viral etiologies, its association with dengue fever is not well known and is rarely documented in the literature. In this report, we describe a rare case of ALERD associated with dengue fever in a young patient, emphasizing clinical features, neuroimaging findings, management, and outcome. This case reinforces the need to consider dengue as a potential etiologic factor for ALERD in endemic regions and highlights the importance of timely intervention for improving patient outcomes.
