Trihexyphenidyl for treatment of dystonia in ataxia telangiectasia: a case report.
Article in Child's nervous system : ChNS : official journal of the International Society for Pediatric Neurosurgery, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Ataxia telangiectasia (AT) is an autosomal recessive multisystem disorder caused by mutations of ATM gene. And dystonia may develop as a late manifestation in typical AT. Here we report a novel homozygous frameshift ATM mutation (c.1402_1403delAA; p. K468Efs*18) in a 10-year-old male. The patient was diagnosed as typical AT according to clinical presentations which included progressive cerebellar ataxia, oculocutaneous telangiectasia, immune deficiency, and cerebellar atrophy. The genetic finding confirmed the diagnosis. Severe dystonia was presented in late stage of this disease. After 3 months of trihexyphenidyl treatment, the frequency of dystonia was reduced significantly. Although dystonia is not uncommon in phenotype spectrum of AT, compared with other symptoms of this syndrome, such as cerebellar ataxia and dysarthria, dystonia can be treated.
