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

backgroundHereditary diffuse leukoencephalopathy with spheroid (HDLS) is an autosomal dominant white matter disease characterized by adult-onset cognitive impairment, behavioral or emotional changes, paresis, Parkinsonism, and seizures. Mutations in the gene encoding colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R) have been identified as the cause of HDLS.

methodsDetail medical history, clinical features and brain imaging of a patient with adult-onset leukoencephalopathy, cognitive impairment and motor dysfunction was reviewed and next generation sequencing was performed. An extensive literature research was then performed to identify all patients with HDLS previously reported. The clinical characteristics, brain imaging and genetic features of patients with HDLS were reviewed.

resultsA novel CSF1R mutation, c.1952G>A p.G651E was identified in the patient. Extensive review showed that HDLS typically presents with broad phenotypic variability. The most common symptoms of HDLS were cognitive impairment, followed by psychiatric symptoms, Parkinsonism, gait disorder, and dysphagia. The most common brain imaging findings of HDLS were bilateral white matter lesion, mostly around the ventricles, frontal lobe, and parietal lobe. Calcifications in white matter on CT, cerebral atrophy and thinning of corpus callosum were also common features. Although HDLS demonstrates an autosomal dominant pattern, sporadic cases are not uncommon.

conclusionsEarly recognition of clinical and neuroradiographical characteristics of HDLS is key for the correct diagnosis of the disease.
