Wernicke's Encephalopathy Following Pregnancy Loss: A Case Report and Literature Review.
Article in Case reports in neurological medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
A 40-year-old female with no history of alcohol use presented with altered mental status and generalized weakness ten days after dilation and curettage for missed abortion, complicated by persistent vomiting and electrolyte imbalances. Examination revealed confusion and disorientation, without nystagmus, ophthalmoplegia, or ataxia. Brain MRI showed characteristic symmetrical periventricular signal abnormalities consistent with Wernicke's encephalopathy. She was treated with intravenous thiamine (500 mg three times daily for five days), followed by oral supplementation, with gradual resolution of confusion. She was discharged on the 13th hospital day in a hemodynamically and neurologically stable condition. This case highlights that nonalcoholic Wernicke's encephalopathy can occur following surgical procedures complicated by prolonged vomiting and nutritional deficits. Early recognition and prompt thiamine replacement are essential for favorable outcomes.
