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

Progressive cavitating leukoencephalopathy is a childhood neurodegenerative syndrome characterized by brain MR imaging findings of patchy leukoencephalopathy with cavities and vascular permeability, initially affecting the corpus callosum and centrum semiovale, and eventually coalescing into large cystic regions of white matter. We report a case of progressive cavitating leukoencephalopathy in a 2-year-old female patient presenting as intermittent motor deficits which partially resolved over several months. Whole exome sequencing revealed a homozygous c.264C>G (p.F88L)
