A thyroid storm causing strokes and unmasking moyamoya.
Article in Radiology case reports, 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
Moyamoya disease is a rare progressive cerebrovascular condition that affects the internal carotid arteries and their major branches. This leads to the formation of a networks of collateral moyamoya vessels and can cause ischemic or hemorrhagic complications. Moyamoya syndrome is a secondary condition that presents with moyamoya vessels and is associated with other underlying causes including Down syndrome, sickle cell anemia, intracranial atherosclerosis or thyroid disease. In this case report, we discuss a 29-year-old female with Grave's disease who presented with recurrent headaches, acute intermittent numbness and paresthesia. Radiologic evaluation showed multifocal intracranial infarcts and stenosis of the bilateral internal carotid arteries and decreased caliber of the distal anterior circulation. This case highlights the importance of considering MMD/MMS as a differential diagnosis in patients suffering from headaches and/or seizures, especially in the third or fourth decades of life. Prompt diagnosis and management leads to favorable outcomes in patients with moyamoya.
