A Case of Anti-LGI1 Limbic Encephalitis Presenting With Non-convulsive Status Epilepticus and Requiring a Long Period of Hospitalization.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
An 81-year-old man was brought to our hospital with tonic-clonic seizures and a gradual progression of cognitive dysfunction. Four months prior, he experienced transient episodes of stiffness and unresponsiveness. One month later, the patient began to exhibit disorientation to time and place. Upon admission, fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed hyperintense lesions in the right limbic cortex. Electroencephalography (EEG) revealed lateralized periodic discharges in the right temporal lobe. Serum anti-LGI1 antibody was detected. Based on these findings, anti-LGI1 limbic encephalitis (LE) was diagnosed. His symptoms improved with corticosteroid treatment; however, six months of hospitalization were necessary for him to regain independence in daily living. Although the prognosis of anti-LGI1 LE is generally favorable, older age at onset, non-convulsive status epilepticus, diffuse limbic lesions, and delayed treatment may have influenced the clinical course in this case.
