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
backgroundConvexity subarachnoid hemorrhage (cSAH) is recognized as a cause of transient focal neurological episodes. These episodes can closely mimic transient ischemic attacks (TIAs). We report a case of cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA)-related cSAH presenting with recurrent transient monoparesis. CASE DESCRIPTION: An elderly patient with a history of hypertension was admitted to our hospital because of recurrent episodes of transient left upper limb monoparesis. Initial diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) demonstrated a focal hyperintensity over the right frontal convexity. Susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI) revealed a focal hypointense signal at the corresponding area, consistent with cSAH. Video recordings of the left upper monoparesis were available, but the episodes were clinically indistinguishable from TIAs. Antiseizure treatment with levetiracetam was initiated, but the episodes persisted. After the addition of clobazam, no further episodes were observed.
conclusionThis case demonstrates that CAA-related cSAH may present with recurrent transient monoparesis that closely mimics TIA. Careful evaluation of susceptibility weighted imaging is important for recognizing the underlying hemorrhagic lesion in patients with recurrent stereotyped TFNEs.
