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

Cytosolic PEPCK deficiency (PCKDC) is a rare autosomal recessive inborn error of metabolism, which can present with hypoglycemia, lactic acidosis, and liver failure. It is caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in the PCK1 gene. Only four PCK1 variants have been previously reported in seven patients with PCKDC, and their clinical course of this condition has not been well characterized. Here, we report a Hispanic male with novel biallelic PCK1 variants, p.(Gly430Asp) and p.(His496Gln), who had a unique clinical presentation. He presented with a new onset of growth failure, elevated blood lactate, transaminitis, and abnormal urine metabolites profile, but he has not had documented hypoglycemia. Growth restriction happened due to insufficient caloric intake, and it was improved with nutritional intervention. PCKDC is a manageable disorder and therefore appropriate nutritional and clinical suspicion from typical lab abnormalities which lead to molecular confirmation tests are essential to prevent poor clinical outcomes.
