Paraneoplastic progressive Supranuclear palsy: a case report and literature review.
Article in Oxford medical case reports, 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
Progressive supranuclear palsy-Richardson syndrome (PSP-RS) is a sporadic atypical parkinsonian disorder typically resistant to levodopa. While most cases are neurodegenerative, various conditions (genetic, vascular, infectious, or paraneoplastic) can mimic this phenotype, termed PSP-like or PSP mimics. Although paraneoplastic PSP is extremely rare, it is important to recognize because of its potential reversibility. The diagnosis can be particularly challenging, especially when classical tumor markers or imaging fail to identify a clear neoplastic origin. Here, we describe a 39-year-old man with an Anti-Ri-mediated PSP-like syndrome in whom an extensive evaluation, including surgical removal of two suspicious sites (thymus and testis), failed to identify an underlying tumor. The patient presented with rapidly progressive symptoms characteristic of PSP-RS, raising clinical suspicion for a paraneoplastic cause. We also review the literature on paraneoplastic PSP.
