Anti-metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 coexistent anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor encephalitis: a case report and literature review.
Review in Frontiers in immunology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) antibody encephalitis is an infrequent clinical disorder, initially reported in 2011 among two patients presenting with limbic encephalitis and Hodgkin's lymphoma. Mental and behavioral abnormalities are prevalent manifestations, accompanied by cognitive impairment, movement disorders, seizures, and other associated symptoms. In this report, we present the case of a young female patient who presented with abnormal mental behavior, seizures, and disturbances of consciousness. A cell-based assay (CBA) showed positive IgG metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 in both her serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), as well as positive IgG N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) in both her serum and CSF. She was diagnosed with mGluR5 overlapping NMDAR antibody encephalitis and received high-dose intravenous methylprednisolone pulse therapy and immunoglobulin therapy. Tumor screening suggested the presence of bilateral ovarian teratoma. However, unfortunately the prognosis was extremely poor. Clinical results suggested that patients with mGluR5-Abs mostly have good prognoses, excepting our case.
