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

Objectives: Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is an uncommon but serious neurological complication characterized by headache, seizures, visual disturbances, and altered mental status, and associated with parieto-occipital vasogenic edema on neuroimaging. Rickettsial infections have rarely been reported as triggers of PRES. Methods: In this report, we describe the case of a 26-year-old man with rickettsial infection in Iran who developed a diffuse petechial rash, acute kidney injury, recurrent seizures, and bilateral cortical blindness. Results: Brain magnetic resonance imaging revealed extensive parieto-occipital hyperintensities consistent with PRES. An indirect immunofluorescence assay demonstrated a fourfold rise in immunoglobulin M titers against Conclusion: This case highlights
