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 epileptic encephalopathy (EOEE) has been used to encompass Ohtahara syndrome (early infantile epileptic encephalopathy [EIEE]), early myoclonic epilepsy, and many others. Multiple genes have been established to cause epileptic encephalopathy in the immature brain, and next-generation sequencing has accelerated the process of novel gene discovery. Many of the previously published candidate genes are still pending confirmatory reports or functional studies. Although most of the genes involved are ion channels (channelopathies), multiple other pathways have been implicated as well. NECAP1 is a key element in clathrin-mediated endocytosis and has been reported previously to cause EOEE in a Saudi family. We report another family with the same variant confirming the pathogenicity of this variant as a Saudi founder mutation, further delineate its phenotype, and propose that it causes EOEE instead of EIEE.
