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

Early-onset progressive encephalopathy is a lethal encephalopathy caused by NAXE gene mutations. This paper reports the clinical and genetic features of a patient with early-onset progressive encephalopathy. A 4-year-old boy admitted to the hospital had repeated walking instability and limb weakness for 2 years. The patient and his elder brother (already dead) had clinical onset at 2 years of age. Both of them showed symptoms such as strabismus, ataxia, reduced muscle tone, delayed development, and repeated respiratory failure after infection. The NAXE gene of the patient showed new compound heterozygous mutations, i.e., c.255 (exon 2) A>T from his mother and c.361 (exon 3) G>A from his father. The NAXE gene encodes an epimerase that is essential for the repair of cellular metabolites of NADHX and NADPHX. This disease is associated with a deficiency of the mitochondrial NAD(P)HX repair system. Patients usually have rapid disease progression. They are also quite likely to have respiratory failure immediately after infection.
