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

purpose of reviewSeizures can arise in neocortical, thalamocortical, limbic or brainstem networks. Here, we review recent genetic mechanisms implicated in focal and genetic generalized epilepsies (GGEs). RECENT

findingsPathogenic variation in GAP activity toward RAGs 1 (GATOR1) complex genes (i.e., DEPDC5, NPRL2 and NPRL3) mainly result in focal epilepsies. They are associated with high rates of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy and malformations of cortical development (MCD), where "two-hits" in GATOR1-related pathways are also found in MCDs. Large-scale sequencing studies continue to reveal new genetic risk (germline or somatic) variants, and new genes relevant to epileptic encephalopathies (EEs). Genes previously associated with EEs, including GABA
