Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Findings in Pediatric Autoimmune Encephalitis: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 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
Autoimmune encephalitis (AE) is a rare condition that involves an immune-mediated attack on the brain, often presenting with seizures, altered consciousness, and other neuropsychiatric symptoms. This case report describes a seven-year-old girl who presented with acute brain dysfunction, including seizures and disturbed consciousness, following a gastrointestinal illness. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings revealed early signs of AE, including hyperintensities in the external capsules and medial temporal lobe. Following negative infectious workups, the diagnosis of AE was confirmed, and the patient was treated with immunomodulatory therapy, leading to gradual improvement. This case emphasizes the importance of early recognition, the role of MRI in diagnosis, and the need for prompt treatment to improve outcomes in pediatric AE.
