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
Myoclonus-dystonia associated with epsilon-sarcoglycan gene (SGCE) is a rare disorder characterized by myoclonus involving the upper body (neck, trunk, upper limbs) and proximal muscles associated with dystonia in more than half of the patients. When the clinical picture is clearly identified, more than half of the cases are associated with mutations in the SGCE gene. We herein describe a family with myoclonus-dystonia associated with a novel mutation in exon 7 of SGCE, c.904A>T (p.Lys302Ter) [Chr7:(GRCh38):g.94600779 T>A], which was absent in a non-affected member. A video recording of two of the affected members is provided. While the index case presents a severe cervical dystonia even affecting back posture, his sibling shows a much milder phenotype with mild myoclonic jerks. None of them had alcohol responsiveness or psychiatric comorbidity.
