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 polyradiculoneuropathies are a heterogeneous group of disorders that may present with rapidly progressive, symmetrical weakness and can mimic Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS). We report the case of a 60-year-old woman who presented with acute ascending flaccid weakness of all four limbs, consistent with a severe acute polyradiculoneuropathy clinically resembling GBS. During the diagnostic workup, a previously unrecognized squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix was identified. This case report aims to describe a rare temporal association between an acute polyradiculoneuropathy with GBS-like features and cervical squamous cell carcinoma, while highlighting the diagnostic challenges and differential considerations in this clinical context. To our knowledge, this clinical association has been rarely reported in the literature.
