Enteral topiramate in a pediatric patient with refractory status epilepticus: a case report and review of the literature.
Article in The journal of pediatric pharmacology and therapeutics : JPPT : the official journal of PPAG. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 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
We describe the use of topiramate in a healthy 12-year-old (88-kg) male who developed refractory generalized convulsive status epilepticus. Seizures persisted despite aggressive use of benzodiazepines (intravenous lorazepam; oral clorazepate), barbiturates (i.e., phenobarbital, pentobarbital), and hydantoins. The child's seizures were controlled with nasogastrically administered topiramate in doses up to 500 mg twice daily (11.4 mg/kg/day). The patient did not display any clinical or laboratory signs of metabolic acidosis while receiving topiramate. Topiramate should be considered as a treatment option in refractory status epilepticus.
