Cranial MRI in neurosarcoidosis: Imaging patterns and nationwide clinical correlations.

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
objectTo investigate cranial MRIs of sarcoidosis pateints by defining typical and atypical findings and their relations with patient characteristics and other disease manifestations. MATERIALS AND
methodsA nationwide cohort was formed from patients with an entering ICD-10 code for sarcoidosis twice at least 1 month apart and any tissue biopsy result with the word "granuloma" defined in the biopsy report were considered to have sarcoidosis. Data regarding patients were obtained by using Turkish Ministry of Health National Electronic Data base. Patients of the formed cohort were investigated for the presence of a cranial imaging at any time.
results4367 patients were defined as sarcoidosis and enrolled in the study. 1659 cranial imagings in 689 patients were investigated. 1175 imagings were deemed suitable and evaluated. 3.4% of the patients had findings suggestive of sarcoidosis. Most common lesions were leptomeningeal or dural thickening with/without contrast material enhancement and midbrain/brainstem lesions. Presence of pulmonary sarcoidosis was the only significant factor with a negative predictive effect for patients to have typical findings. DISCUSSION: Among sarcoidosis patients with MRI we detected 3.4% of them had findings suggestive of CNS sarcoidosis. Absence of pulmonary involvement was observed to be predictor for occurrence of typical manifestations.
