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

The neurological manifestations of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection are underrecognized. Ischemic stroke and thrombotic complications have been documented in patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection. Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) associated with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is rare but can occur; the incidence of COVID-19-associated ADEM is still not clear due to the lack of reporting of cases. ADEM may have atypical stroke-like manifestations, such as hemiparesis, hemiparesthesia and dysarthria. The treatment strategies for ADEM and acute stroke are different. Early identification and prompt management may prevent further potentially life-threatening complications. We report a patient with SARS-CoV-2 infection presenting with stroke-like manifestations. We also make a comparison between demyelinating diseases, COVID-19-associated ADEM and acute stroke. This case can prompt physicians to learn about the clinical manifestations of SARS-CoV-2-associated ADEM.
