Not your usual neurodegenerative disease: a case report of neuronal intranuclear inclusion disease with unconventional imaging patterns.

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
Background: Neuronal intranuclear inclusion disease (NIID) is a rare neurodegenerative illness with characteristic brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) manifestations: diffuse symmetric white-matter hyperintensities in lateral cerebral ventricle areas in fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) and high-intensity signals along the corticomedullary junction of the frontal-parietal-temporal lobes in diffusion weighted imaging (DWI). Here, we report a case of adult-onset NIID who was misdiagnosed with Susac syndrome (SS) due to unusual corpus callosum imaging findings. Case presentation: A 39-year-old man presented with chronic headache, blurred vision, tinnitus, and numbness in the hands as initial symptoms, accompanied by cognitive slowing and decreased memory. Brain MRI revealed round hypointense lesions on T1-weighted imaging (T1WI) and hyperintense lesions on T2WI/FLAIR/DWI in the genu and splenium of the corpus callosum. An initial diagnosis of SS was made based on the presence of the SS-typical symptoms and SS-characteristic radiology changes. Furthermore, the patient's symptoms improved upon completion of a combined pharmacotherapy plan. However, no significant changes were evident 18 months after the brain MRI scan. Eventually, the patient was then diagnosed with NIID based on a skin biopsy and detection of expanded GGC (guanine, guanine, cytosine) repeats in the NOTCH2NLC gene. Conclusion: The present NIID case in which there was simultaneous onset of altered nervous and visual system functioning and atypical imaging findings, the atypical imaging findings may reflect an initial change of NIID leukoencephalopathy.
