First case report of Rett syndrome in the Azeri Turkish population and brief review of the literature.
Article in Epilepsy & behavior case reports, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Rett syndrome is a dominant X-linked male-lethal disorder largely caused by mutations in the gene encoding methyl-CpG binding protein 2 (MECP2). Clinical manifestations include neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by early-onset intractable seizures, severe developmental delay, intellectual disability, and abnormal electroencephalograms. Afflicted females show normal development until the age of 6 to 18 months, followed by gradual loss of speech abilities, microcephaly, social impairment, ataxia, and stereotypic hand movements. We report a 7-year-old girl who was born of a nonconsanguineous marriage presenting with mental retardation and delayed development. Physical examination revealed loss of speech, repetitive hand-wringing movement, short stature (120 cm), strabismus, microcephaly, and autistic behavior. The diagnosis was confirmed by sequencing MECP2 gene with heterozygous mutation C385A in exon 2. The current study aimed to report the first case of Rett syndrome in the Azeri Turkish population.
