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

41-year-old female became difficulty walking due to sensory ataxia in the limbs and trunk. A diagnosis of Sjögren's syndrome was made on the results of positive anti-SS-A antibody and a lip gland biopsy. Nerve conduction studies indicated sensory neuronopathy. The symptoms improved following treatment with plasma exchange, intravenous immunoglobulin, and intravenous methylprednisolone. Nine months later, the patient's sensory ataxia worsened. Nerve conduction studies revealed the coexistence of sensory neuronopathy and polyradiculoneuropathy. The symptoms improved following treatment with intravenous cyclophosphamide and intravenous immunoglobulin. This case represents the first instance of sensory neuronopathy and polyradiculoneuropathy coexisting as Sjögren's syndrome related neuropathy.
