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

The knowledge about the genetic spectrum underlying paediatric mitochondrial diseases is rapidly growing. As a consequence, the range of neuroimaging findings associated with mitochondrial diseases became extremely broad. This has important implications for radiologists and clinicians involved in the care of these patients. Here, we provide a condensed overview of brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in children with genetically confirmed mitochondrial diseases. The neuroimaging spectrum ranges from classical Leigh syndrome with symmetrical lesions in basal ganglia and/or brain stem to structural abnormalities including cerebellar hypoplasia and corpus callosum dysgenesis. We highlight that, although some imaging patterns can be suggestive of a genetically defined mitochondrial syndrome, brain MRI-based candidate gene prioritization is only successful in a subset of patients.
