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

Paroxysmal dyskinesias encompasses a spectrum of conditions marked by intermittent involuntary movements, with paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesias being the most common phenotype. Central nervous system infection is a rare cause of paroxysmal dyskinesias. We present a case of paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesias secondary to human herpesvirus 6A encephalitis for the first time, and review the literature on paroxysmal dyskinesias secondary to central nervous system infection. This case highlights the importance of differentiating primary from secondary paroxysmal dyskinesias. Early anti-infection and immunotherapy may be the key to treating this type of disease.
