Diabetic Striatopathy as a Presenting Symptom in Newly Diagnosed Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Case Report.

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
Diabetic striatopathy is a rare, acute neurological complication of diabetes mellitus which presents with non-ketotic hyperglycemia and involuntary movements, specifically hemichorea or hemiballismus. Striatal abnormalities on neuroimaging have been reported in most, but not all cases. This case report aims to increase awareness that diabetic striatopathy can be a presenting symptom of diabetes mellitus. A 92-year-old Filipino female with no history of diabetes presented with acute onset of focal clonic flexion of the left upper extremity for a few hours, which progressed to right hemifacial spasm. She was diagnosed with a hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state and was treated accordingly. Cranial CT scan findings were unremarkable. There was an immediate resolution of her neurologic symptoms after the correction of hyperglycemia. The diagnosis of diabetic striatopathy highlights the importance of increasing awareness and understanding of this condition among clinicians to prevent delayed diagnosis and treatment. Screening for hyperglycemia is advisable for patients with involuntary movements. The prognosis for diabetic striatopathy is good with prompt glycemic control in most cases.
