Generalized epimerase deficiency galactosemia.
Article in Indian journal of pediatrics, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Galactosemia is caused by inherited deficiencies in one of three enzymes involved in the metabolism of galactose: galactose-1-phosphate uridyltransferase (GALT), galactokinase (GALK), and uridine diphosphate galactose-4-epimerase (GALE). The rarest and most poorly understood form of galactosemia is due to epimerase deficiency. We are reporting such a rarest form of galactosemia presenting with progressively increasing cholestatic jaundice and failure to thrive at one month of age. After confirmation of decreased epimerase level in RBC hemolysate, the patient was put on galactose restricted diet and vitamins supplementation, which reversed the clinical signs as well as altered liver function. Patient is on regular follow-up and now at 15 months of age he has no marked developmental delay.
