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

GABA has always been an inviting target in the etiology and treatment of epilepsy. The GABRA1, GABRG2, and GABRD genes provide instructions for making α1, ϒ2, and δ subunits of GABAA receptor protein respectively. GABAA is considered as one of the most important proteins and has found to play an important role in many neurological disorders. We explored the association of GABAA receptor gene mutation/SNPs in JME and LGS patients in Indian population. A total of 100 epilepsy syndrome patients (50 JME and 50 LGS) and 100 healthy control subjects were recruited and analyzed by AS-PCR and RFLP-PCR techniques. In our study, GABRA1 965 C > A mutation and 15 A > G polymorphism gene may play an important role in modulating the drug efficacy in LGS patients. The GABRA1 15 A > G polymorphism may also play an important role in the susceptibility of LGS and the inheritance of GG genotype of this polymorphism may provide an increased risk of development of LGS. The GABRG2 588 C > T polymorphism may decrease the duration of seizures in JME patients. The GABRD 659 G > A polymorphism may play an important role in the susceptibility of JME and LGS and this polymorphism may also increase the duration of postictal period in JME patients but may decrease the duration of seizure in LGS patients.
