Drug-Resistant Epilepsy in Children with Juvenile Huntington's Disease: A Challenging Case and Brief Review.
Article in Qatar medical journal, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Huntington's Disease (HD) is an autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disorder with a progressive decline in cognitive, motor, and psychological function. Chorea tends to be the most common associated movement disorder, although other variants of several abnormal movements are also seen. Adult-onset HD is the most common subtype. Juvenile Huntington's disease (JHD) accounts for 5%-10% of all HD cases and presents as a rapidly progressive disorder with a multitude of characteristics. We report on a 9-year-old male with JHD who presented with refractory epilepsy. His EEG findings, seizure type, and antiepileptic drug usage are discussed with a brief review of the currently available relevant literature. The currently reported case sheds light on antiepileptic drugs that proved effective in our patient and the importance of screening for JHD when a child presents with seizures that are difficult to control.
