Infantile Subacute Brainstem Infarction and the Presence of Incidental Ectopic Lymphoid Tissue: A Rare Case.
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
Unexpected infant deaths often present complex diagnostic challenges, where clinical histories alone may not reveal the underlying etiology. Autopsy examination remains essential in identifying uncommon neuropathologic findings that contribute to mortality. A two-month-old male infant was found unresponsive in his car seat (day 0) and succumbed four days later despite intensive medical intervention. His medical history included neonatal respiratory distress with two prior admissions to the neonatal intensive care unit. Autopsy was conducted one day after death (approximately five days postictus), revealing ectopic lymphoid tissue within the medulla of the brainstem, accompanied by subacute infarction and early necrosis. Additional systemic findings included acute splenic infarction, colonic inflammation, and focal acute bronchiolitis. Genetic analysis (collected two days postictus) identified a heterozygous
