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

Opsoclonus-myoclonus-ataxia syndrome (OMAS) is a rare neuroimmunological disorder with diverse etiologies, including infection-associated triggers such as human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Herein, we report a case of HIV-associated OMAS in an antiretroviral therapy (ART)-naïve patient who presented with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)/plasma HIV-1 RNA discordance. A 16-year-old female was diagnosed with HIV following the onset of OMAS. The CSF HIV-1 RNA level was higher than that in the plasma. After ART initiation, both the CSF HIV viral load and OMAS symptoms improved simultaneously. This case demonstrates that CSF/plasma HIV-1 RNA discordance can occur in ART-naïve patients with HIV-associated OMAS. Moreover, our findings suggest that, in such cases, viral suppression through ART alone may be sufficient to achieve clinical resolution without the need for adjunctive immunosuppressive therapy.
