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

Acute ischemic stroke is a rare condition in the pediatric population. This case highlights the importance of considering neuroborreliosis as a potential cause of stroke in children, emphasizing the role of early diagnosis and appropriate treatment in preventing long-term sequelae. We present the case of a 13-year-old girl who was admitted with left-sided central facial nerve paresis. She had a six-month history of recurrent tension headaches and unintentional weight loss. Brain MRI revealed an ischemic lesion in the right thalamus and internal capsule, with additional findings in the left thalamus and cerebellar hemispheres on follow-up imaging. The diagnostic workup revealed positive
