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

Reversible splenial lesion syndrome (RESLES), mild encephalitis/encephalopathy with a reversible splenial lesion (MERS), and cytotoxic lesions of the corpus callosum (CLOCCs) are overlapping clinicoradiological constructs associated with infection, seizures, metabolic disturbance, and drug exposure. We report an 11-year-old right-handed boy with recurrent paroxysmal speech arrest over approximately 24 hours. During the episodes, consciousness and comprehension were preserved; he could vocalize and communicate by typing but could not produce meaningful speech. Transient left upper-limb or generalized weakness and upper respiratory symptoms accompanied the spells. Respiratory adenovirus testing was positive, and a
