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

Heterogeneous clinical and neuropathological features have been observed in the recently described neuronal intermediate filament inclusion disease (NIFID). The immunohistological findings common to all cases are alpha-internexin and neurofilament-positive neuronal cytoplasmic inclusions, which have not been found in comparable density in other neurodegenerative disorders. Notwithstanding these common features, the cases reported so far have shown differences concerning age at onset, constellation and dominance of symptoms as well as type and distribution of additional neuropathological findings. Here we present the first NIFID case that exhibits severe involvement of lower motor neurons. Also, this patient may have had a clinical onset of disease in early childhood, as she was diagnosed as having dysarthria, which could not be attributed to any other cause at the age of 3 years. This case is a further contribution to the spectrum of this novel neurodegenerative disease.
