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

A 19-year-old female patient presented to our clinic with abdominal pain, psychomotor agitation and disorientation. The laboratory analysis revealed severe hyponatremia. Cerebral magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed characteristic neuroradiological features of a posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES). The detection of a significant increase in the serum concentration of porphyrins confirmed the clinical suspicion of acute intermittent porphyria (AIP). The likely trigger for the sudden AIP exacerbation was the use of levonorgestrel for postcoital contraception. Under treatment with high-dose glucose solution and haem arginate, the abdominal symptoms regressed rapidly. In contrast, neuropsychiatric symptoms improved only gradually, making neurological rehabilitation necessary.
