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

LGI1 in humans is responsible for a predisposition to autosomal dominant partial epilepsy with auditory features (ADPEAF). However, mechanisms of how LGI1 mutations cause epilepsy remain unclear. We have used a mouse chromosome engineering strategy to create a null mutation for the gene ortholog encoding LGI1. The Lgi1 null mutant mice show no gross overall developmental abnormalities from routine histopathological analysis. After 12-18 days of age, the homozygous mutant mice all exhibit myoclonic seizures accompanied by rapid jumping and running and die shortly thereafter. The heterozygous mutant mice do not develop seizures. Electrophysiological analysis demonstrates an enhanced excitatory synaptic transmission by increasing the release of the excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate, suggesting a basis for the seizure phenotype. This mouse model, therefore, provides novel insights into the mechanism behind ADPEAF and offers a new opportunity to study the mechanism behind the role of LGI1 in susceptibility to myoclonic seizures.
