CSF Anti-Sjögren's Syndrome Antigen A Antibodies and Low Glucose Levels in Sjögren's Syndrome-Associated Aseptic Meningitis: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2026. 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
Primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) rarely involves the CNS, including cases of aseptic meningitis (AM). We report the case of a 59-year-old woman who presented with headache, fever, and nuchal rigidity. CSF analysis revealed pleocytosis, elevated protein, and decreased glucose levels. Both serum and CSF anti-Sjögren's syndrome antigen A (anti-SS-A) antibody tests were positive, with an elevated CSF anti-SS-A antibody index. Salivary gland biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of pSS. The patient improved following steroid pulse therapy. Reduced CSF glucose levels in combination with positive CSF anti-SS-A antibody tests may serve as supportive clues for pSS-associated AM. Evaluation of autoimmune features and CSF anti-SS-A antibodies may aid in the diagnosis of AM of unclear etiology.
