Acute aortic dissection presenting as crossed neurological symptoms: a case report.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 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
Aortic dissection can present with a wide variety of symptoms depending on the transient arterial occlusion during propagation of the dissection. Neurological manifestation, including hemiplegia, paralysis, paraplegia, and monoplegia, have been reported previously. However, crossed neuropathy has never been found. In this case report, we present the case of a 14-year-old girl who presented with right upper limb numbness and weakness together with persistent left lower extremity weakness, which mimicked peripheral polyneuropathy. The patient was finally diagnosed with arterial dissection but unfortunately died. Aortic dissection can be easily misdiagnosed as Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS); this case emphasizes the importance of identifying atypical neurological manifestations of aortic dissection. Early identification and timely treatment are crucial for improving survival rates and prognosis.
