Infectious Mononucleosis Causing Bell's Palsy: A Case Report.
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
Infectious mononucleosis, also called the kissing disease or "mono," is typically caused by the Epstein-Barr virus. It is a clinical condition marked by fever, lymphadenopathy, and pharyngitis. Bell's palsy is a condition that causes sudden, temporary facial paralysis, or weakness on one side of the face. It can have various etiologies, such as congenital, neurological, infectious, neoplastic, or traumatic. This report describes the case of an 18-year-old female who was diagnosed with Bell's palsy, a rare neurological complication of Epstein-Barr virus-associated infectious mononucleosis. This instance highlights a unique manifestation of facial nerve palsy, which is atypical in cases of mononucleosis.
