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

Eyelid myoclonia with absences is recently included in the category of childhood epileptic syndromes. It is clinically characterized by brief seizures of eyelid myoclonia, sometimes followed by absences, and it is associated to EEG generalized discharges of polyspikes or polyspike-waves, which are triggered by eyes closure in a well-lit room. This epileptic syndrome probably has a genetic origin, as well as other genetic generalized epilepsies, in particular photosensitive epilepsies. We describe the case of a patient affected by eyelid myoclonia with absences, intellectual disability, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), with a de novo mutation of the RORB gene (retinoid-related orphan receptor β); this gene is involved in vivo in different neuronal processes among which are migration and differentiation. We suggest that its mutation in our patient can be considered the cause of the aberrant functioning of the cerebral cortex, which is clinically expressed by epilepsy and neurodevelopment disorders.
