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

rationaleCongenital generalized lipodystrophy (CGL) is a rare autosomal recessive hereditary disease. It is associated with metabolic complications and epilepsy is rare. PATIENT CONCERNS AND DIAGNOSES: One child with BSCL2 mutation and CGL accompanied by progressive myoclonic epilepsyDiagnosis: He was diagnosed with epilepsy, CGL, and severe malnutrition.

interventionsHe was treated with sodium valproate, baclofen, aripiprazole, benzhexol, and lamotrigine for epilepsy. OUTCOMES: After 16 days of medical treatment for epilepsy, the disease was improved and the child was discharged with gastric tube inserted for the management of malnutrition. LESSONS: CGL and progressive myoclonic epilepsy is rare, and the epilepsy is partially refractory to treatments. In this particular case, the nutritional status was compromised as a complication of progressive myoclonic epilepsy and had to be managed.
