Genetics of Focal Epilepsies: What Do We Know and Where Are We Heading?
Article in Epilepsy currents. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers.
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.
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
This article is based on a lecture delivered at the 2017 American Epilepsy Society Annual Meeting and provides an overview of the growing evidence supporting the strong genetic contribution to focal epilepsies. This also discusses how advances in the molecular genetics of focal epilepsies are rapidly translating to routine clinical care.
