Anti-NMDAR Autoimmune Encephalitis: A Diagnostic Challenge in Clinical Laboratories.
Article in EJIFCC, 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
Anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis is an antibody-mediated neurological disease which is acute, severe and with a complicated differential diagnosis. In 38% of cases, it arises as a paraneoplastic neurological syndrome (PNS) associated with cancer. Ovarian teratomas are the most frequently associated tumors, especially in young women. However, teratomas are usually mature and benign and psychiatric and neurological symptoms improve after resection. Clinical laboratories play a key role in the diagnosis and prognosis of these diseases, highlighting the importance of laboratory test results to prompt the search for the associated tumor. In addition, communication between laboratory medicine specialists and clinicians, as well as a multidisciplinary approach, are essential for early disease identification and treatment.
