Neurocysticercosis Presenting as Status Epilepticus.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
A 26-year-old healthy female with recent immigration from Nepal presented to the emergency department (ED) after experiencing four to five generalized tonic-clonic seizures at home. Workup in the ED revealed an abnormal calcification of the occipital lobe with vasogenic edema. The patient was given lorazepam and loaded with levetiracetam and dexamethasone. She was admitted to the hospital for new-onset seizures and workup of brain mass. An inpatient MRI revealed a solitary ring-enhancing lesion with punctate calcifications, consistent with a scolex, and blood analyses confirmed the diagnosis of neurocysticercosis. The patient was treated successfully with albendazole and corticosteroids and discharged after four days with no recurrence of seizures to date.
