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

Alexander disease (AD) is an autosomal dominant leukodystrophy which predominantly affects infants and children. The infantile form comprises the most common form of AD. It presents before two years of age and characterized by macrocephaly, psychomotor regression, spasticity, pyramidal sign, ataxia and seizures. The diagnosis is based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings and confirmed by Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) gene molecular testing. We report an Indian case with normal head circumference.
