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

Foix-Chavany-Marie Syndrome (FCMS), also known as opercular syndrome, is a rare neurological disorder caused by an ischemic stroke that results in autonomic-voluntary dissociation. In this case report, we describe a patient who presented with an acute right frontal and parietal cortical lesion, in addition to a remote infarction in the left lateral paraventricular region. The patient exhibited a masked face, facial paralysis, dysarthria, dysphagia, and apraxia of eyelid closure while automatic pathways, such as crying and laughing, remained intact. MRI revealed an acute ischemic lesion in the operculum and a chronic contralateral lesion. Blink reflex testing indicated intact brainstem pathways but an impaired corticobulbar tract. Dynamic laryngoscopy showed severe impairment in the oral and pharyngeal stages of swallowing. Early diagnosis and a multimodal therapeutic approach, including acupuncture and swallowing training, significantly improved patient outcomes, including the resolution of eyelid motor control deficits. The patient had a relatively good prognosis.
