Zellweger syndrome: A cause of neonatal hypotonia and seizures.
Article in Sudanese journal of paediatrics, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Zellweger syndrome, a paradigm of human peroxisomal disorders is characterized by dysmorphic features, hypotonia, severe neuro-developmental delay, hepatomegaly, renal cysts, sensorineural deafness and retinal dysfunction. This is a case report of a baby boy born with facial dysmorphism, profound hypotonia, seizures, and hepatomegaly. The diagnosis was not evident initially but only later when he presented with obstructive jaundiced and renal cysts. He died at the age of seven months. Biochemical studies revealed elevation of very long chain fatty acids and phytanic acid consistent with a peroxisomal disorder. The recognition of this syndrome is important since it is a fatal hereditary disease. Zellweger syndrome should be included in the differential diagnosis of infantile hypotonia and dysmorphism.
