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

We identified SCN1A variants in 2 infants who died of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) with hippocampal abnormalities from an exome sequencing study of 10 cases of SIDS but no history of seizures. One harbored SCN1A G682V, and the other had 2 SCN1A variants in cis: L1296M and E1308D, a variant previously associated with epilepsy. Functional evaluation in a heterologous expression system demonstrated partial loss of function for both G682V and the compound variant L1296M/E1308D. Our cases represent a novel association between SCN1A and SIDS, extending the SCN1A spectrum from epilepsy to SIDS. Our findings provide insights into SIDS and support genetic evaluation focused on epilepsy genes in SIDS.
