Review in Cureus, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 22 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Fabry disease is an X-linked lysosomal storage disorder caused by a mutation in the alpha-galactosidase A (GLA) gene, leading to the deficiency of alpha-galactosidase A enzyme. The natural history of the affected patients (both males and females) includes neurovascular complications, such as cerebrovascular disease at a relatively young age. The pathophysiology behind the vascular involvement is primarily attributed to the accumulation of globotriaosylceramide and its derivatives in the vascular endothelium and vascular smooth muscle cells. MRI is the gold standard radiological investigation to detect the white matter lesions characteristic of Fabry disease's neurological involvement. More studies should focus on the utility of universally screening patients with young stroke for Fabry disease and the effectiveness of enzyme replacement therapy to prevent stroke. This review offers a synopsis of the current knowledge of the pathophysiology, neuroradiology, treatment, and prognosis of cerebrovascular disease in Fabry patients.
