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

A 15-year-old boy experienced myoclonic seizures for 3 years. He initially had occasional myoclonus, gradually progressive ataxia, tremors, and psychomotor and speech regression developed. Eventually, he exhibited nearly continuous myoclonus. He received treatment of sodium valproate, levetiracetam, clobazam, and phenobarbital, without efficacy. A ketogenic diet also proved ineffective. Adjunctive therapy with 4 mg/day of perampanel was started and was gradually titrated to 10 mg/day. The remission of myoclonic seizures was achieved within one month. The patient's neurological and cognitive functions improved to a certain degree during the following 20 months. Sialidosis was confirmed by the mutations of
