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

Glucagon receptor (GCGR) defect (Mahvash disease) is an autosomal recessive hereditary pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (PNET) syndrome that has only been reported in adults with pancreatic α cell hyperplasia and PNETs. We describe a 7-year-old girl with persistent hyperaminoacidemia, notable for elevations of glutamine (normal ammonia), alanine (normal lactate), dibasic amino acids (arginine, lysine and ornithine), threonine and serine. She initially was brought to medical attention by an elevated arginine on newborn screening (NBS) and treated for presumed arginase deficiency with a low protein diet, essential amino acids formula and an ammonia scavenger drug. This treatment normalized plasma amino acids. She had intermittent emesis and anorexia, but was intellectually normal. Arginase enzyme assay and
