Pediatric Antiphospholipid Syndrome Presenting as a Massive Stroke: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2023. 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
Pediatric strokes are infrequent yet impactful occurrences with distinct challenges due to their unique pathophysiology and diagnostic complexities. Antiphospholipid syndrome, an autoimmune disorder characterized by antiphospholipid antibodies, can lead to prothrombotic states causing vascular occlusions. Here, we present the case of a previously healthy two-year-old girl who presented with sudden right-sided hemiparesis and altered consciousness. Comprehensive assessments and evaluations revealed a diagnosis of a massive left middle cerebral artery ischemic stroke secondary to antiphospholipid syndrome. The patient received intensive care, antiplatelet therapy, and supportive measures. Gradual improvement in neurological status and motor skills was observed during hospitalization, and the patient underwent comprehensive rehabilitation. This case emphasizes the importance of vigilance, thorough diagnostic evaluation, and tailored treatment strategies. Anticoagulation therapy plays a pivotal role, necessitating a delicate balance between thrombosis prevention and bleeding risk. The significance of multidisciplinary approaches and specialized care for pediatric stroke cases is underscored.
