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

Opsoclonus-myoclonus syndrome (OMS) is a rare neurological inflammatory disease of paraneoplastic, parainfectious or idiopathic origin. It is manifested by the occurrence of opsoclonus, myoclonus, ataxia, as well as behavioral and sleep disorders. The incidence is estimated at 1/5,000,000 people. This syndrome is usually immune-mediated and may be the first manifestation of cancer as a paraneoplastic syndrome, most often occurring in the course of breast, ovarian or lung cancer. Here we show a case of a 20-year-old woman with symptomatic opsoclonus-myoclonus syndrome in the course of teratoma. A brief review of the literature was conducted to determine the diagnostic route and treatment of this rare condition. As a result, it has been shown that the only method of treatment for OMS syndrome is the removal of the neoplastic lesion.
