Neurological Manifestations in Familial Mediterranean Fever: a Genotype-Phenotype Correlation Study.
Article in Open access rheumatology : research and reviews, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
BACKGROUND AND
aimsFamilial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is a periodic auto-inflammatory disease with an autosomal recessive hereditary pattern. The aim of this study is to explain the spectrum of possible neurological manifestations and its genotype-phenotype correlation in patients with familial Mediterranean fever.
methodsIn this case series study, data of 311 FMF patients at the FMF Registration Center in Iran (http://www.fmfiran.ir/) was studied. Patient's information was entered into a researcher designed questionnaire. Data were analyzed by SPSS software.
resultsThe mean age of the 181 male and 130 female patients was 23.01 years, ranging from 3-78 years old. Twelve common
conclusionThe prevalence of epilepsy among FMF patients was significantly higher than the general population. FMF patients with negative results for MEFV gene mutations had significant frequency of headache, paresthesia, breath-holding, and ataxia.
