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

We present the case of an 18 year old Caucasian with known celiac disease, who suffered a severe first attack of acute intermittent porphyria (AIP) with neuropsychiatric symptoms, severe tetraparesis and respiratory insufficiency. Treatment with heme arginate and high-dose intravenous glucose and rigorous rehabilitation resulted in a slow but almost complete recovery of her motor symptoms. To our knowledge this is the first case of acute intermittent porphyria triggered by malnutrition in the context of celiac disease. It is remarkable that the patient showed a favourable outcome despite the severity of her initial symptoms. This case shows the importance of early and systematic symptomatic treatment in patients with severe neurologic manifestation of AIP.
