Case Report: Surgical resection of ovarian teratoma in anti-NMDAR encephalitis complicated by severe pneumonia.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 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
Anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis is one of the most recognized forms of autoimmune encephalitis. We report the case of a 25-year-old woman with ovarian teratoma-associated anti-NMDAR encephalitis complicated by severe pneumonia. Despite treatment at multiple hospitals, she remained comatose with involuntary perioral myoclonus and severe pulmonary infection while intubated. After aggressive anti-infective therapy at our center, her condition deteriorated, and extubation failed; subsequent tracheostomy stabilized the infection and allowed uneventful laparoscopic removal of the ovarian teratoma. Postoperatively, consciousness returned, convulsions ceased, and pulmonary infection continued to improve. The patient was discharged in good condition. Early screening for ovarian teratomas is essential. When teratoma-associated anti-NMDAR encephalitis presents with severe pneumonia, aggressive infection control, meticulous airway management, and timely surgical resection combined with immunotherapy can substantially improve clinical outcomes.
