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

An unusual case of neurological deficits due to intracranial plant material in the thalamus is presented. The case was a young dog with pyrexia, neck pain, and neurological deficits that were consistent with an intracranial multifocal lesion. Based on the imaging findings and the result of the cerebrospinal fluid analysis, a presumptive diagnosis of immune-mediated meningoencephalitis was made. The dog initially responded to immunosuppressive treatment but then deteriorated and was euthanized. At autopsy, plant material was found in the thalamus and mesencephalon. Intracranial foreign bodies are unusual but should be considered as a differential diagnosis in young dogs with neurological deficits that are consistent with a focal or multifocal intracranial lesion.
